The Problem: Create a real-world word cloud
The Solution: Boiled eggs, with shells still on, were dropped from ascending elevations. I chose this scale to show the increasing damage to the eggs as they progressively were dropped from the increasing heights. The highest drop point, about 50 feet from the ground, is the word from the word cloud with the most, or highest importance. 12 eggs were dropped in total from a tower. Each egg was set by hand, in 5mm Helvetica, and on two sides using a letter transfer technique. To generate the word cloud, The New Typography by Jan Tschichold was used.
