Words as Images by Ji Lee Whenever we read a news story, book, letter, or any other form of text our brain relates specific words with previously seen images. By accessing our past memories, like a hard drive, our brain is able to create a visual illustration simply out of words. Taking this one step further, Ji Lee eliminates the need for our brain to do this process. “When we were children, letters were like fun toys. Today we will feature creative examples from Ji’s book titled “Word As Image.” “This project started nearly twenty years ago as an assignment in my typography class at art school. Anyone can create a word as image. Note: All Rights Reserved by Ji Lee. Check out our previous articles: Did you enjoy this article?
The scars on my soul are words. Anonymous asked: When you can't write, what do you do? I'm drowning in words I can't get on paper. I write to put bread ( pho) on my table so I can not afford long bouts of writer’s blocks so I do a few things to combat it… I stop writing for a few hours, go see a movie or a play or a ballet, walk in the woods, or down unknown streets. I then do two exercises to help … the first is I put a pen on a blank piece of paper, set a timer for twenty minutes and then write… I don’t care what I write, how good or bad it is… normally I throw the paper away after, the point is to write… I suspect the computer would work for this too. The second thing I do is short story writing about found objects or people… I walk in the street and the first object I come across, a wrapper, a beer cap, a metal grate etc… I write about it, a story of how it got there, who brought it etc etc… Then I go to a cafe, pick people and write a story about them… who they are, their loves, hates, success, defeats etc…
L'Inconnue |Futility Closet In the late 1880s, the body of a 16-year-old girl was pulled from the Seine. She was apparently a suicide, as her body showed no marks of violence, but her beauty and her enigmatic smile led a Paris pathologist to order a plaster death mask of her face. In the romantic atmosphere of fin de siècle Europe the girl’s face became an ideal of feminine beauty. The protagonist of Rainer Maria Rilke’s 1910 novel The Notebooks of Malte Laurids Brigge writes, “The mouleur, whose shop I pass every day, has hung two plaster masks beside his door. [One is] the face of the young drowned woman, which they took a cast of in the morgue, because it was beautiful, because it smiled, because it smiled so deceptively, as if it knew.” Ironically, in 1958 the anonymous girl’s features were used to model the first-aid mannequin Rescue Annie, on which thousands of students have practiced CPR.

Los dos soras Los dos sorasCésar Vallejo Vagando sin rumbo, Juncio y Analquer, de la tribu de los soras,arribaron a valles y altiplanos situados a la margen del Urubamba, donde aparecen las primeras poblaciones civilizadas de Perú. En Piquillacta, aldea marginal del gran río, los dos jóvenes salvajes permanecieron toda una tarde. Se sentaron en las tapias de una rúa, a ver pasar a las gentes que iban y venían de la aldea. Analquer no les hacía caso. Al cruzar por la plaza, Juncio y Analquer penetraron a la iglesia, donde tenían lugar unos oficios religiosos. Tratábase de un servicio de difuntos. Apenas sonó el canto sagrado, poblando de confusas resonancias el templo, Juncio se echó a reír, poseído de un júbilo irresistible. Vino el sacristán y, persiguiéndoles con un carrizo, los arrojó del templo. El niño no supo qué responder. Y entonces vino un gendarme y se llevó a la cárcel a los dos soras.

[ wu :: chinese ] More neato Biblical character interpretations either constructed or relayed to me by friends. I've relayed this material to Christians, and some of them respond with much happiness, declaring that God has preserved a wonderful record of Biblical accounts in the Chinese language. Well, I dunno about that. The author of this theory is a missionary! Kang, C.H. and Ethel Nelson.
