Trabajo personal, con un dicho muy cierto
----------------------------
"Everything in life you pay"
A personal work, a very certain phrase
—
Make Something Cool Every Day is a personal, (ideally-) daily design exercise wherein I churn out type-centric black and white drabbles using song titles, the Univers type family (Kozuka Gothic for Japanese type) and some wonderful public domain images. (IMG )

MSCE 4 - Feb 12
This idea came to me last night from the insistence that spacesick doesn't know anything about typography (to which I say he is a LIAR because his stuff always looks good) notably in this post.
PS - I know squat diddly about typography myself.
Florida Av, Peaks Island in Casco Bay, Portland, Maine USA • Walls wait for no one. This historic facility is a daily-changing gallery of expressive graffiti. ~ Sunday, October 16, 2016, on the full moon, was the annual (so-called secret) Sacred & Profane Festival, as always, held in the amazing Battery Steele (1942). Also known as U.S. Army Corps of Engineers Battery Construction #102, a United States military fortification, completed in 1942 as part of World War II, it is located on 14 acres (5.7 ha) on the oceanside area of the island. It is named for Harry Lee Steele, who was a coastal artillery officer during World War I. It was built to protect Casco Bay, particularly Portland harbor, from Kennebunk to Popham Beach in Phippsburg. – from Wikipedia. ~ It's now one of thirteen island parcels owned and managed by the Peaks Island Land Preserve
• Portland and the other harbors of southern Maine were terribly important ports. Civil War forts still dotted the islands around these harbors, but Portland now needed far more advanced fortifications to protect it from German attack.
So Peaks Island became home to over eight hundred soldiers. Concrete bunkers and observation posts are everywhere. On the far side of the Island are two huge abandoned gun turrets separated by several hundred feet of underground tunnel. Each held a monster 16-inch naval gun. The guns were test-fired only once. Their blasts broke windows all over the island and the recoil, transmitted through rock, caused small earthquakes. After the war, an Islander ran into a German U-boat captain who said he'd spent the war looking at Peaks Island -- through a periscope. … Invasive bittersweet vines, once planted as camouflage, now grow over that history. – From a report of a visit to the Island by John H. Lienhard.
☞ On October 20, 2005, the National Park Service added this structure and site to the National Register of Historic Places (#05001176).
