“A squiggle is a short line that curls and loops in an irregular way”.
Oxford Dictionary
INSPIRATION: The act of writing allows societies to transmit information and share knowledge. Asemic writing is a wordless open semantic form of writing – writing as an illegible, abstract and wordless mark making. The signs and symbols we create in order to communicate – iconographic symbols, mnemonics, graphemes, rebus, alphabets – all marks made on a surface in order to communicate. But these signs and symbols only communicate to someone who understands them or who can interpret these marks – to anyone else they are just unintelligible squiggle.
‘I believe, somewhere in the pause between writing, seeing and feeling is the silent electric current found in the heart – the soundtrack of the human body.
SAM ROXAS-CHUA
I think that asemic scriptis the manifestation of that inner wiring, and once tuned into it, one can hear the deep innate sentiment that everyday language doesn’t have the words for. Asemic writing is a prototype to express a deeper feeling’.
‘Here is writing that is entirely open to the world, a poetry that generously refuses to delimit the human experience or accept what is known’.
SANDRA Alcosser
‘A line is a dot that went for a walk’.
Paul Klee
