W. Bradford Paley

With a lot of his text printings as scenario, W.Bradford Paley reveals the theories and creative ideas bringing him to the creation of these artistic compositions, where the text acquires different capabilities. Paley is investigating and working in two different but connected ways, one is interactive text, in order to give users the opportunity to get inside the composition and discover the discourse of the text by surfing throw the key words, rubber bands and so on. And the other way is a printing of the text composition, displayed in a way that makes your eyes move around looking for the sense of the paragraphs. In a way, this text is coming to your eyes, as Paley says, the same way as when you look at nature. W. Bradford Paley is founder of Digital Image Design Incorporated, creator of TextArc.org and associate professor at Columbia University.
