Kiel Danger Mutschelknaus has this approach to practice that revolves around creating custom generative tools designed to bring unique design projects to life. Among these, the most interesting is undoubtedly the Space Type Generator, an open-source tool that allows anyone to create kinetic typography experiments — something Mutschelknaus spoke about to It’s Nice That back in 2019. His 16 variations — and more have been released since — have been used all over the world, from music videos to magazine covers, and even large-scale murals. A project that has attracted the attention of publications such as The Verge, étapes, Facebook Curated, Novum Magazine, Eye Magazine, Type01, and PAGE, as well as It’s Nice That.
