Pen Type-C: Power, Resistance, Control
by CW&T and Zainab Aliyu
“My pen design translates the logic of circuits—power, resistance, and control—into a concrete poem rendered as a rectilinear form. Inspired by a simple circuit diagram, this poem elucidates the connection between electronics and ideology. The small green dot recalls the LEDs that punctuate hardware, paying homage to tiny, yet vital, elements that illuminate the workings of larger systems.” — Zainab Aliyu
Pen Type-C is a flat, durable bookmark pen designed by CW&T, perfect for everyday carry in a pocket or tucked into a notebook. Precision-machined to hold a high-quality cartridge that never dries or leaks, its bent spring steel protects the tip when not in use. Flip it around to snap into writing position.
This limited-edition pen was created by CW&T and Zainab Aliyu exclusively for the School for Poetic Computation.
