Have you considered making a font? a language? a cipher alphabet?

i’ve definitely thought about it. i love typography and symbolism and languages. perhaps one day. 

made this last year for the genuary asemic writing prompt.

I am learning Japanese right now and this feels like such a sublime aesthetic form compared to Hiragana and Katakana.

Have also always been fascinated by Sumerian and cuneiform.

simultaneously easier than I thought it would be (super efficient to have an alphabet that contemplates sounds from combined letters) and also very fatiguing. I always feel tired after each lesson.

the most fascinating part is the INTENTION of the alphabet. efficiency? aesthetics? what you can read? what it hides?

oof i’ve heard it’s a tough one to learn. can imagine character and symbol association alone is fatiguing. very cool that you’re learning it.
