Entry Description

This is a conceptual project that fuses the font symbol system with human cognition. Inspired by the behaviour of experienced lottery players who simulate the logical reasoning patterns of mathematicians to predict the winning lottery numbers. Constructing a device that simulates the probability of winning the lottery and distilling it into a unique font system codified into a reinterpretation of Ludwig Wittgenstein's Tractatus Logico-Philosophicus reflects how language and logic are individually constructed and mutually validated as human understanding.
