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

Posting this again as I received it in the mail and it's quite wonderful "in person"---great piece, Terry. Around the considerations of what is asemic, for me arises a curiosity, since much art certainly qualifies as "having no specific semantic content, " whether adding in the word "writing" changes things.....as in "asemic writing." And this in considering ideograph style writing as in Chinese/Japanese (that which I'm most familiar with), or other "communicative symbols" whatever THAT means. Is a triangle on its own communicative? Certainly it might be open to interpretation......In this regard I'm remembering the flap about a sign language interpreter "translating" a speech, I think by Obama, and supposedly he was signing "gibberish." "Communicative symbols" failing to signify? Asemic sign language??? It's all quite fun to contemplate......
Received asemics from Jack Oudyn in Australia. Many thanks!

Nice post museumofmailart!
DVS, you are so right when you say children do asemic writing before they learn to write. I love my two grandson's (3 and 6) art and "writing" much more than my own. There is something in their work I can't put my finger on but it draws me in. It feels very "organic", for lack of a better word right now. Or, maybe "organic" is the correct word. I'm sure someone else can explain this feeling much better than I.
DVS, thanks so much for your kind words about my first asemic piece. Your comment was such an encouragement to me. I was glad to hear what you had to say about doodling. :-)
Tiny Tim Leary and Richard Herb Alpert (Ram Dass or Rammed Ass?)? The 60s are such a jumble to me now, Richard.
Thanks for that invaluable clarification. I have been ranting about asemics and abstract linguistic theory, which is a track for some.
But children do asemic writing before they learn to write. We are, indeed, all doodlers. It's the simplistic thing in the world. No one should ever fear just jumping in and making asemics because anyone can do it without a thought.
16.11.14 Dare De Villo S.,.... Thank you for stating: "Doodling really, really is asemic". As a matter of fact, I'd go far as to say that's pretty much what we all are doing here to begin with. God bless us every one. Tiny Tim & Richard
And welcome Ti Ar Raden - I've been reading your posts for years. It's great to at least have the possibility to get to know you better. As with everyone, you're encouraged to post in the group.
