Initial ideas.

Producing typographic interpretations of elbow's The seldom Seen Kid using typography. A little unsure how to translate that into a physical piece, series of prints? CD covers? to be sold individually?

In terms of content, I would want a good amount of quotes of type to work with, so from initial development with type, attempt favourite lyrics with type I have to form compositions?

The Lyrics- (as samples from full tracks)

Some of the lyrics chosen will possibly have to be trimmed down (such as grounds for divorce) especially with the amount of repetition, but this would depend on context.

the truest love that's ever found

Is for oneself

I can work till I break

but I love the bones of you

That, I will never escape

And we took the town to town last night

We kissed like we invented it

There'll be twisted karaokee at the Aniseed lounge

And I'll bring you further roses

But it does you no good

And it does me no good

And it does you no good

I know iron and steel couldn't hold me

But god I'm easy bruised

But so often a moth to her flame

We have the driver and time on our hands

One little room and the biggest of plans.

The days were shaping up, 

Frosty and bright.

Perfect weather to fly.

I must have been working the ropes

When your hand slipped from mine

Now I live off the mirrors and smoke

In penguins and pearls, we'll drink and we'll dance

'Til the end of our days, cause it ain't left to chance

The booze turns a tall, gentle boy to a terrible totem

Cause holy cow, I love your eyes

And only now I see you like

Yeah, lying with me half-awake

Stumbling over what to say

Salford skyline gloom

Always you 

Could fly round any corner

But until you do

Love you mate
