Mind the gap

Mind the gap

Mind the gap sets a column of words tight and pulls them apart. Depending on the effect, letters open into gaps, stretch through their horizontal strokes like warm type, or scramble into stray glyphs before settling back, each with its own sound.

How to use it

Open Settings to type your own words and pick an effect, font, alignment, motion and sound. Click the text to re-cut it, and record the result.
