Nir Tober is a graphic designer from Israel who has created the alphabet using a camera on a slow shutter speed and poi. It took him about 15 hours to complete all 26 characters and is upset by reports that the images had been photoshopped. Although it wouldn't be a very adaptable font (i'm struggling to think of uses for it!), it is beautiful and a great example of people finding new ways to create typefaces.
