Asemic Writing for Mail-Artists

Received a book of vispo by Matt Stolte (Wisconsin, USA). Sort of a "Greatest Hits" concept, I gather. Has some great work in it. Thx Matt!

The Art of Eric Wayne includes a page which is asemic or nearly so:

Here's a link to the Wikipedia article on asemic writing

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Asemic_writing

http://hyperallergic.com/262596/code-based-artworks-that-reinvent-t...

includes a piece [see end of page] of VERY low semicity.

Received asemic writing from Maria Teresa Cazarro (Padua, Italy). She is one of our group members. Many thanks!

Received a great card from visual poet and asemic writer Lin Tarczynski (California, USA). Lin has produced asemic graphic novels and other works of interest.

wow!  you're right, Ficus!  I must be getting old, I did not see that!

not sure if this is '3D' asemic, I can see an "R".

Ok... I KNOW this is not asemic [is semic?] but to me it only conveys calligraphic beauty and of a sort I'd not previously encountered. It comes from a Wikipedia article: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gohonzon_%28Nichiren_Buddhism%29

Received a trove of material from Cark Baker (Peterborough, Ontario, Canada). Thanks Carl. Much of interest to the group. I think.

Christmas card from 'ML' or Maria Morisot, only 5089 movement stamping on envelope to identify sender. Nice mousie [what I love to eat], my Brother Tom once made mock mouse stew from radishes with the 'tails' left on.

I'm guessing this is either asemic writing or Klingon tableware.

Woopsie! And it's from Cornpuff.

the below screenshot immediately suggested to me unreadability but I must apologize for its semicity.

haw, yeah it makes too much "sense"

maybe this one does too

Untitled nephrographic inscription at the site of its creation.

Note asemic nephrography upper right quadrant of below photo. I admit that nephrography may not ALWAYS be asemic.

Document in process of spoliation which, eventually, will render it asemic.

rearrange the pieces and you can also post it on the new Cut-Up Technique IUOMA group!

Not really asemic but...

Thanks for posting Nadia, and welcome. Visual poetry and language-centered work of all varieties is welcome.

Great stuff, Fike!

I've documented a new batch of image-text material by Ruud Janssen. Many thanks, Ruud!

I'm of multiple minds into which group to place this graphic. It started as a well-used grocery list carried apocket for weeks... so... Trashpo? But then it found itself cross-haired by Google's Deep Dream image altering service and the result below is much less semic. Asemic? Not entirely. Semisemic?

whatever it is (and what it is doesn't really matter) it is beautiful

Received "Asemic Gesture" by Richard Canard (Illinois, USA). Many thanks to Richard!

Received asemics from Moan Lisa (Iowa, USA)

I have blogged the NADAR TLP (Luna Bisonte) that features vispo collabs by our own Diane Keys (Illinois, USA) and John M. Bennett (Ohio, USA). Some great work, The Keys-Bennett collabs are receiving a positive reception generally. The work definitely has an asemic aspect.
