“Crumpled Paper Sound” project 

Editorial design – Jury commendation

Year

2008

Context

Research into the concept of the sound book. How can sound be expressed through the silence of the page?
I explored more than 200 typographic symbols expressing sonic onomatopoeia, classified into sub-families.

The book is structured in three parts:

  • Left page: literary onomatopoeia (text – narrative framework);

  • On tracing paper overlaying the left page: codification of the onomatopoeia and indication of duration over time;

  • Right page: spatialization and frequency cues.

This project earned me the jury’s commendation.
