Author's note

Fragile is a free digital decorative display font with tall, skeletal letters traced in clusters of loops, coils, and tiny mechanical marks. Each character resembles a circuit diagram assembled with beads and fine wire, yet the underlying forms remain recognizable. The dense ornament changes from letter to letter.

It can turn a title into an illustrated machine and is especially apt for experimental music posters and technology-themed game graphics. The eccentric linework also suits album packaging and editorial features about electronics, invention, or retro-futurism. In those settings, the lettering can function as part of the diagrammatic artwork rather than merely naming it.
