The Frankenfont project, by Ben Fry (Fathom), reconstructs Mary Shelley’s classic Frankenstein using parts of incomplete fonts found in PDFs from the internet.
“An edition of Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein laid out using characters and glyphs from PDF documents obtained through internet searches. The incomplete fonts found in the PDFs were reassembled into the text of Frankenstein based on their frequency of use. The most common characters are employed at the beginning of the book, and the text devolves into less common, more grotesque shapes and forms toward the end.”
