Iron or Irony?

Persistence of vision is a valuable principal found to have its place in designing. How visual effects persevere in the minds of the viewer can make or break the message it conveys. From the, strong, inflexible, rigid, sturdy, robust durability of iron like materials used, to the ironic contrasts of messages developed, a designer wants their message to create a lasting impression for their audience. Step right up and see for yourself is the unheard gesture that visual art always conveys. But the job isn’t actually done until the audience walks away with the impression created by the artist in their memory.

Blinding Affection?

Here is an example of distressed typography that really caught my eye. It seems to show a great sense of business sensibility geared toward the consumer for advertising. I found this while afoot at the Baltimore Inner Harbor's Gunther Circle. This display of typography was remarkably interesting not only because of the great details it could display but because of the affect of the rotating blind really drawing in one's attentions. The National Aquarium of Baltimore is a major attraction at the Baltimore Inner Harbor. The National Aquarium is recognized worldwide as an Aquarium of the World as referenced by MarineBio.org.
