MIDI-Type
Rewire Festival transforms The Hague into a hub of avant-garde sound – and our bespoke typeface embodies that energy. Developed with Marie de Munck, Lou De Smedt, and Laurens Van Hoorick, MIDI-Type began with retro pixel fonts and evolved into grotesque shapes with subtle serif flourishes. Square forms became a visual motif, echoed across the type specimen’s foldable display. Deep black and electric yellow amplified its intensity, reflecting the festival’s experimental ethos. For my individual contribution, I tapped into Rewire’s psychedelic aura – melting shapes, kaleidoscopic colours, and a mirror-finish poster that shifts with light. The typeface itself becomes more than functional – it is a living translation of Rewire’s collision of tradition, technology, and sound.
