The word ‘lost’ is used in many contexts throughout history. Battles and wars are won and lost, as are races and footbal matches. People also can be lost either temporarily or permanently – think Dr Livingstone, the Donner Party, Amelia Earhart, Jimmy Hoffa. We often refer the death of people of being ‘lost’ – ‘the 1958 Manchester United team lost in the Munich air crash.
For my typographic exploration of the word ‘lost’, I decided to typographicaly explore the story of Adrian Doherty, the lost genius of Manchester Uniteds golden generation. Doherty was not a typical footballer. Doherty was also an eccentric – by football standards, at least. When his peers went to watch the first team on Saturday afternoons, the kid from Strabane, Northern Ireland, preferred to take the bus into Manchester to go busking. One team-mate said “It was like having Bob Dylan in a No 7 Shirt, like poetry in motion".

@adrianbrown121175 Tu proyecto es increíble. Desde lo conceptual, lo narrativo y lo visual. Además, está muy cuidada tu presentación en este foro. ¡Felicidades! Recuerda que, aunque las relaciones proporcionales entre elementos (cuerpo tipográfico, por ejemplo) nos definen valores numéricos precisos, siempre debes ajustarles según la percepción óptica. Por ejemplo, si tus títulos midieran líneas de texto completas, la percepción de la alineación de títulos y bodytext sería más armónica. Gracias por tomar este curso.
