The graphic designer in me has wanted to do a brain painting that is somewhat large and is black on white with nothing but an image of the word brain.
I thought it might be appropriate to read up on my favorite typographer, or a typographer of some significance, and I think that I might go with Gutenberg.
His story is quite interesting. I'll need to read up on it, but I think his impact on the world goes without saying. I think he would be the best choice of a story to tell. I'm a little disappointed that that painting won't say brain in English, but it really makes the most sense to paint brain in German: Gehirn. I think I'll compose the word from letters in the bible in order to use the same typeface that he had used.
