Tedious Type - Ends 13th August

http://habbox.com/text/20/Tedious+Type

I'm in the process of making my final piece for a class at uni based around typography. I've taken simple quotes that I've heard my friends, lecturers or classmates say over the course of the project and turned them into beautiful intricate designs. The point? I hear you ask, other than the fact that typography turns me on, is to portray how even simple boring words can be made to be beautiful.


My task for you guys however is to help me out with a little thing called inspiration. Go explore the world wide web and find me an example of typography that you think is appealing. Think about how the quote is portrayed through imagery.

Obviously I can't judge you on your taste so may the most interesting quote win!

The moment you mentioned "typography" the picture/video that first popped in my head is this:

According to the creator of this kinetic typography, this was Stephen Fry's essay on language. If you want to watch the video click here (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=J7E-aoXLZGY).
