From Me To You is a new project by Gorbet Design that debuted last weekend in Toronto at the Gladstone Hotel, as part of a show titled 'Come Up To My Room'. The letters on top are from a set of Nixie Tubes, designed in the 60s to get output from computers in a pre-screen age. The four letters in the middle are blank, and visitors can turn knobs on the outside of the case to select letters and words to complete the sentence 'I .... you.'
The machine understands the letters and words that are entered, and once a word is input the computer changes one letter at a time to show variations on the original word. As the artists put it, the results are predictably unpredictable.
Check out their slide show for a more complete description of the project and lots more photos.

I love interactive things like this that deal with type. :)
