Poetry publication, research into typography

Looking through the book 'Typography Now', I have taken pictures of possible ways I could format the text throughout my publication. 

  

 

Combining a more simple layout of text with a vague illustration to help represent

 

an image with scattered text, this wouldn't work that well with long text as it wouldn't read well

 

pt size variety, fairly scattered but better flowing 

 

large type spread across double page

 

forming a shape through text. I like the idea of this however would try to avoid widows etc...

 

type manipulation, this is interesting but I don't want to get too involved with typography

 

slightly manipulated layout

 

slanted/angled text

 

combination of layouts, typeface etc...

 

shaped text

 

typeface variety

 

this idea could work with short poetry, highlighting the words through coloured letters

 

I like this idea, using part text, part rough illustration. However would poetry read well?

Poetry Publication, initial testing #2

 

I am testing out writing the poetry in the way that expresses the message behind it, through breaks and structure of the text. 

    

sense of security expressed through positioning on the page 

 

Expressed through specific typefaces?

I need to think of a concept that can run through the publication that personalises each poem.

These were a series of screen-based animations for an installation at the British Nuclear Fuel visitors centre. I like how they have been created through subtle manipulations to the existing typeface to communicate the message.
