Morrissey by Autobahn

‘Morrissey by Autobahn’ is a typeface that brings tribute to the song ‘There is a light that never goes out’ by The Smiths.

The shape of the typeface is based on the principle of ‘interference’: a phenomenon in which two waves superimpose to form a resultant wave of greater or lower amplitude. Interference effects can be observed with all types of waves like light and sound. ‘Morrissey by Autobahn’ is a visualisation of the interference of both light (the title of the song) and sound (Morrissey singing).

Morrissey by Autobahn was shown at Beyonderground (Hasselt, BE) and Glow (Eindhoven, NL).
