Idea: form a curvy riveràdistortion 

Starting point:
Find a grid
Find a number linked to your genre (rhythm, standard number of players) – use it
Find a ratio/ size (3/4 length trousers) – use to quickly modify type àprint out names, at ¾ u cut them 
Print out your text 


I randomly screenshotted an image of rivers in texts from google. I made use of the rivers to create a distortion by flattening all the words to form a really curvy river. 


Size of words!! Blow it up?
Do it on a typewriter?
