Asemic writing is an open semantic form of writing. The word asemic
means "having no semantic content".
Illegible, invented, or primal scripts (cave paintings, doodles,
children's drawings, etc) are all influences upon asemic writing. But
instead of being thought of as mimicry of preliterate expression,
asemic writing can be considered as a postliterate style of writing
that uses all forms of creativity for inspiration.
Some asemic writing has pictograms or ideograms, which suggest a
meaning through their shape. Other forms are shapeless and exist as
pure conception within the garden of imagination and experience.
Asemic writing has no verbal sense, though it may have clear textual
sense. Through its formatting and structure, asemic writing may suggest
a type of do***ent and, thereby, suggest a meaning. The form of art is
still writing, often calligraphic in form, and either depends on a
reader's sense and knowledge of writing systems for it to make sense,
or can be understood through aesthetic intuition.
Asemic writing can also be seen as a relative perception, whereby,
unknown languages and forgotten scripts provide templates and platforms
for new modes of expression.
