Glyph Chain

A small machine that turns your writing into a keychain — and lets you slide it between something you can read and something you can only feel. Made in the RAD Lab, printed on our Bambu Lab P1S (or any 3D printer near you!).

Choose your glyphs

Select letters and/or posture/gesture symbols to create your chain. It is $4 per glyph to print in the lab.

A name, a word, two initials. Short costs less.

Two voices: a plain one and a decorated one.

Search the RAD Lab's posture/gesture vocabulary and add symbols alongside — or instead of — your letters.

What filament it gets printed in.

The randomness that breaks your glyphs apart has to come from somewhere. Pick a source — yourself, nature, or the market.

Drag from an inkblot toward your glyphs. The middle is where reading and gesture meet.
