Author's note

Code-128 by Grandzebu is a free barcode symbol font with a dense, machine-readable-style silhouette. Its marks alternate slender lines and broader bands in a strict vertical pattern. The effect is stark and mechanical.

The repeated bars can merge with packaging graphics and technology-themed patterns. They suit mock product labels and inventory illustrations, where the scanning motif supplies the subject immediately. Album artwork and event posters can also use the code-like texture as an industrial graphic element.
