    A3 PROJEKT SERIES 1.02 Art Print - XYLEM - 1991
    Limited Edition of 50 prints

    Spanning 35 years, 9 typefaces combined with the 9-colour gamut of 3 Projekt.
    By isolating a single letter from each, the focus is on the sculptural quality inherent in the making of a letterform.

    A typeface that waited 25 years for its moment.
    The Aphex Twin logo and logotype came first, drawn in 1991: amorphous, interlocking letters, soft and rounded yet unmistakably machine-made. A year later, I used those letterforms as the DNA for a full alphabet, intended for the Xylem Tube EP. But the record was rush-released, and the typeface never made it onto the sleeve. It did, however, take its name from that EP. Only in 2017, on the 25th anniversary of Selected Ambient Works 85–92, did I finally share it on Instagram.
