I am curious how members view the phenomenon of spontaneous asemics and if they ever experience something like I did this afternoon. I was tidying my workspace and while lifting a pile of paper I detected marks of ink that got stuck to the plastic…Continue

Hi I am new here because by chance I saw your question. I have used Fontographer to create my own fonts from drawings and it is easy and free. It will work with W7, I think. You need a painting /graphic program to create tiny drawings of each…Continue

Adapted from Wikipedia Asemic writing is a wordless open semantic form of writing. The word asemic means “having no specific semantic content.” With the nonspecificity of asemic writing there comes a vacuum of meaning which is left for the reader to…Continue

Thank you for sharing, Carien van Hest.
"asemic poetry" is an area that really hasn't been explored (which I think is a good thing!). Of course I am especially interested to see asemic poems & also asemic-visual poetry hybrids.
(There is no right or wrong here! I'm not slightly suggesting that. I think we can make asemic poetry what we want.)
Here are asemic poems I did early as mail art for Carina Granlund in Finland. The scan date is June 5, 2012!
I've done some collabs (Asemic Front, after all, is about collabs) w/ the Princess Olivia Mooncake work shared in our group thanks to Borderline Grafix.

Thank you, De Villo Sloan.
I feel like Maxima Strange (Ohio, USA) has been in the group forever, but actually she is very new. And here is her first appearance on Asemic Front 2 with some gothic asemics! Many thanks. And of course folks know there is no limit to the amount of material you can submit to Asemic Front.

Mail Art Martha! We have fruitfully discoursed upon Trashpo as well.
Wonderful observation: The Nothingness to which Buddhists aspire is similar to the aim of the asemicist (asemic writer).
Otherwise, Dharma (I understand to be the spiritual realm) appears in Beat writing. Kerouac's "Dharma Bums" is notable. Ginsberg writes of "Dharma poetics." The jump to the asemic is easy.
Also I would note asemic writing probably in part is derived from automatic or "spirit writing" where the medium is recording messages from "the other side," which involve non-recognizable or only partially recognizable language.
Thx for deepening the discussion, MAM.
Dharma Asemics? no sense, nonsense, all vey Zen, and you say you have no particular affinity with the Buddha, DVS.
Thank you so much, DVS! I'm glad to be getting back into mail art & visiting IUOMA after a (too long) break.
De Villo, you made me smile.
Oh & in my trembling, unsteady hands I hold a large envelope received from none other than Maxima Strange! Just picked it up at the PO this afternoon.
The piece is as yet unopened. What can it be?
We shall see!
