theme for type conference

Our group decided that we wanted the conference to be all about storytelling with typography. We have not decided on a set name yet but that is the general idea. Type with motion is the general theme that all of our experiments had in common, so we decided to tell a story with our typography through motion. Experimenting with how sequencing and pace of words effect the feeling a viewer has on what they are reading. We also decided to use sayings or phrases that everyone can recall so that anyone who is viewing it can connect or relate to it. We are thinking right now about nursery rhymes. They are short and almost everyone can recall or recite parts of them. We imagine this being in a gallery setting like a museum. The people would walk through these "stories" which would be animations projected for large viewing. Then there would be a conference room of some sort that everyone would gather in after viewing and a speaker would talk about type and motion, sequencing, pace, ect. There could also be group breakouts at the end of how the viewers feel or the feelings they get when watching these. Im sure there will be revisions but this is what our group has planned for now.
