Decommissioned Prose

A few months ago, I stated my intention to draw every day during 2025. How is it going? Really well! I don’t feel compelled to share much here other than it has been very rewarding. Drawing is one of my favorite things, and I’ve found that by doing it more frequently, I feel sharper and more comfortable with it. It’s more second nature, and this challenge is not a chore. Very satisfying.

I’ve also been working on a project concerning Asemic texts. Asemic writing is a wordless open semantic form of writing. The word asemic means “having no specific semantic content”, or “without the smallest unit of meaning”. It can be gestural, and often is.

I have been cutting up certain materials to reassemble them in new ways. It’s not exactly Asemic writing, but several expository efforts have made their way into my sketchbooks over/alongside my drawings. These feel connected to the Asemic project. I like them, and have, in turn, had a robot read them aloud for me. I then recorded these orations and added them to some of my instrumental RPM tracks, which ties several projects together this month.

I will likely make completely posts for each “writing,” but for now, I’ll share these WIPS as a sign of my enjoyment in these tasks.

I’m getting into assembling these! I’ll clean them up and share them more fully later.
