An Anthology of Asemic Handwriting

This slim volume is the first publication to collect the work of a community of writers on the edges of illegibility. Asemic writing is defined as an open wordless semantic form of writing; it's writing without meaning. The non-specificity of asemic writing creates a vacuum of meaning, a space for the reader to interpret form. An Anthology of Asemic Handwriting is compiled and edited by Tim Gaze from Asemic magazine and Michael Jacobson from The New Post-Literate blog.
