This is very interesting! I'm curious if this is found, or created?

This is talking about something new in literature that was left hanging in the air by WW2. Slowly ... slowly ... catchee monkey.

i am indebted to tim for having published my work in ASEMIC magazine back when while i was predominantly doing comics. My alien language work was mostly private (or reserved for the mail network). Many years later the world is buzzing with the illegible. love it.

"Pansemia as process, as an incessant "reading" of everything, all the
time, everywhere, in a world composed of constellations and alchemical
correspondences." This process has already a name: semiosis.

Caro Marco, credo realmente - al pari di Rosaire - che sia un utensile. Se riempio il mio ultimo taccuino (è ciò che sto facendo) di segni asemantici, miglioro nel Gesto. E il gesto pittorico è ciò che ti dà la libertà d'espressione.
C'è un'altra cosa. Asemic writing è alquanto assuefativo. Non riesco a finire un lavoro perché continuo nei segni. C'è inoltre in me la convinzione che questi segni mi stiano conducendo da qualche parte.

I like "abstract text". Why not!

why not simply use 'abstract text'???

suggest revisiting http://scriptjr.nl/special-... for more complete definitions of concrete and visual poetry. i believe Nico is defining VisPo instead to visual poetry. VisPo is a termcovering works what i would call neo-concrete. wordless (letter full and their fragmented parts) concrete is found throughout the concrete anthologies

Re: On the Codex Seraphinianus

∏ᶲ⁞₪ — Sun, 23 Feb 2014 00:41:50 -0000

I am currently undergoing a slow descent into madness by attempting to translate Serafini's book. I do not believe it is a simple cypher, nor is it a self created language. I think that there is a possibility that it is a combination of logogramic and phonogramic components, so something in between a cypher and an independent language. I am inclined to think that diacritic marks change either the tense, or pronoun case, or something similar. It is also possible that what appears to us to be one word may sometimes be a cluster of words with a specific meaning. I really hope that this is a translatable text, despite Serafini claiming it to have no meaning. It is possible that he was being philosophical when he said that.

That is indeed a J.J. Grandville illustration for Gulliver's Travels, showing Gulliver reading a book in Brobdingnag, the land of giants. Author Jonathan Swift invented a few words of the Brobdingnag conlang ('constructed language'). So to be precise it's not asemic writing but a conscript ('constructed [writing] script'), a scrap of the Brobdingnag writing system apparently invented by Grandville.

Thanks for the inspiring website! I'm grateful to you for introducing me to the fascinating world of asemic writing, and this page in particular prompted me to finally pick up a copy of Gulliver with Grandville's gorgeous illustrations on eBay.

Best wishes,

Thank you for the update, @冷泉科理雄! I've updated the bibliography, and if you'd ever like to run this article in SCRIPT -- in addition to or instead of your blog -- let me know.

Hello, SCRIPT-journal. A website including the webpage I wrote about the scenario of Tanizaki's was suddenly closed without informing me of that. I have just reopened it on an entry in my shadow's blog. Here it is. ( http://ameblo.jp/maruki/ent... )

As part of his thesis research into the Surrealist Lesescenario sub-cannon, Nicholas Roth, a PhD candidate at Cornell U, recently brought Benjamin Fondane's closet scripts to my attention.

- Paupières mûres (Eyes Wide Open). In Trois scénarii: Cinépoèmes (Robert Baze, 1928).
- Barre fixe (Horizontal Bar). In Trois scénarii: Cinépoèmes (Robert Baze, 1928).
- Mtasipoj. In Trois scénarii: Cinépoèmes (Robert Baze, 1928).

@Lesescenario recently brought this closet screenplay to my attention:

- Jun'ichirō Tanizaki, 月の囁き (Whispering Moon). 現代 (Gendai) (1921).

I'm afraid neither he nor I know the specific issue in which Tanizaki's Lesescenario appears. According to these Worldcat entries, bits and pieces of the periodical appear in various US research collections:

- http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/41204302 (accessed 18 September 2011).
- http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/53917266 (accessed 18 September 2011).

If anyone investigates the topic further, and can help flush out the publication data, please post a comment below.

@Lesescenario also provides the following resources. The latter is his own response to Whispers:

- "月の囁き" ("Whispering Moon"), Wikipedia (31 August 2011). http://goo.gl/SrMtP (Japanese) / http://goo.gl/ApgnG (English) (accessed 18 September 2011).

- "谷崎潤一郎の「月の囁き」" ("Jun'ichirō Tanizaki 'Whispering Moon'"), Texpo (n.d.). http://texpo.jp/texpo/disp/40923 (Japanese/English) (accessed 18 September 2011).

Relevant to Thomas' Lesescenarios, as well as the interests of the preceding article, Jacob Korg makes the following point in his 1953 review of The Doctor and the Devils ("Thriller into Art," The Nation [New York] [14 November 1953]: 413):

"Mr. Thomas's scenario suggests that the film script may have excellent possibilities as reading matter. In a literary form where everything must be visible or audible the author must supply his reader with vivid experiences, not with explanations of what he means to say. In addition, there is more resemblance between Mr. Thomas's old medium of poetry and his new one than might first be supposed, for movies, while essentially dramatic, are fluid and hypnotic enough to lend themselves to the poetic method of expressing ideas by means of images in suggestive combinations."
