If usual artworks are putting things together and coming up with a total or product output, this Empty Words system is different. It is removing something to create a work of art. As I quote from the website:
Empty Words is a system for typesetting and producing text-based posters consisting of only holes.
It is made of standard vinyl cutter that is being ran by custom made software. The combination resulted to a tool for production of textual works.
During an exhibit, the system was ran on a modified Apple TV wherein the visitors are allowed to type their own posters for printing, or rather cutting.
The product may seem so simple but I think it is a good start for typesetting. Different forms of art can be produced using this machine.
Watch how it works on the following videos.
