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.
