Typing art

Washington-based painter Tyree Callahan modified a 1937 Underwood Standard typewriter and turned it into The Chromatic Typewriter. By replacing  the characters on the ends of the typebars with small pads of oil paint, while the letters on the keyboard were swapped out with color swatches Callahan created a functional "painting" device.
