A pair of prints produced using experimental digitally cut poster types which allow letters to be contracted or expanded to the printer's design. The design of these prints uses the modular construction of the types to an extreme, testing the resilience of the letters to be recognised when their component pieces are forced apart. The title and design refer to the news that scientists in China had simultaneously transmitted quantum entangled photon particles to receiver stations located 1200km apart: http://www.sciencemag.org/news/2017/06/china-s-quantum-satellite-achieves-spooky-action-record-distance

The types we're designed for this project by Austrian type designer Stefan Ellmer and CNC cut by Anna Thon Knutsen. This is the first output from Across the Wires, a project divised by Associate Professor Maziar Raein and developed together with the aim of seeing how we might use the strengths of our institutional typographic collections in producing long distance collaborative works.
