Type Tilt

Lumen & Logic

Renders a body of text as horizontally stretched lines that fill the canvas — one word per line, each scaled to the same width. A grid of geometric shapes (circle, square, or equilateral triangle) is overlaid, and inside each shape the text is shown again, rotated by a configurable angle around the shape centre. The rotation creates a tilted-window illusion: the text outside the shapes reads normally, while the text seen through each shape appears to be printed on a slightly twisted plane. Shapes alternate tilt direction in a checkerboard pattern by default, or can tilt uniformly or at random per seed.
