I would define typography as a type of digital art that involves using words, letters, punctuation, and other characters that are normally used to express language, and then formatting and arranging them in a way that forms an image. Often, different fonts and letter sizes are used to change the effect made by the characters.
In my opinion however, typography is more than just an arrangement of words and language. It is interwoven with emotion, memories, ideas, and experiences. When the typographer spends hours working on his piece, it is impossible not to leave a part of himself in his work. This is what makes typography special, and distinct from other forms of art.
