# IndexStyle — https://indexstyle.org/compose?ids=punk+swiss-punk
# Punk carries the structure. Swiss Punk Typography appear as accents, each further back than the last.
# Style descriptors only. Never imitates a specific artist, studio, brand or work.

An original image that takes its structure from Punk (Style, 1970s–1980s) and its accent from Swiss Punk Typography (Style, 1970s–1980s). Structural cues: Cut-and-paste letters; Photocopier noise; Handwriting; Ragged placement. Accent cues, used sparingly: The grid dismantled; Exploding letterspacing; Stepped compositions; Layered-film textures. Composition: Deliberate misalignment and overlap; disturb even the margins. Type and lettering: Mix newsprint letters, handwriting and stamps. Let one material quality come from the second style: Layered exposures building halftone and reversal through the film. Mood: Rebellion, Exhilaration, Technology. Color: build on #eee3cf, #ef3127, #10100f with a single accent drawn from #e9e6dd, #67635d, #171615. Constraints: do not imitate, reference or name any specific artist, studio, brand, character or copyrighted work. Produce an original composition in the general period languages described above.

# Cautions carried from each entry
# - Punk: Borrowed rebellion is hollow. Decide what you are protesting first.
# - Swiss Punk Typography: Breaking a grid you never built leaves the offsets nothing to measure against, so the rebellion within discipline never happens and only mess remains.
