Ghosts

Since the beginning of the twentieth century until today, the artistic research on linguistic codes of written communication reveal strong affinities, though the specific intent are different depending on the means used for the expression. The futurist free word on the board used the 'sign', or typeface, to obtain variously graphic effects and figurative.
