Humans May Have Used These Mysterious Symbols to Encode Information Tens of Thousands of Years Before the First Writing Systems: The symbols, discovered on 40,000-year-old artifacts in caves in southwest… @SmithsonianMag #AncientSymbols #PrehistoricArt #WritingSystems #HumanHistory #Archaeology
I'm posting this one too just because I enjoyed it and the idea of a hidden literary cannon of scribed books is a romantic notion for anyone working in indie print media.

The si5 site is permanently down. I can find fragments of si5 but nothing substantial. Symbol font has a singular page, and I can't find ASL-phabet or ASLJot at all other than references. These aren't the only ones, gone or barely there.

Fantastic article about different written scripts around the world and their history! I knew a lot of it already from research I did for a novel I’ve been working on, but some of it was new, and it’s one of the best overviews I’ve come across.

Wow! And is that the Ge'ez script in the exhibit description? I'm not familiar with Ethiopian writing systems but excited/encouraged to see what looks like text in the indigenous language! #museums #lingsky #Ethiopia #Lucy #WritingSystems #LanguagePolicy
Enjoy an incredibly fascinating piece on the ongoing attempts to decipher the khipus - the lost Inca (proto) writing system based on knots tied on cords.

First writing session in a month. Thought I’d be rusty.
Turns out I was just holding pressure.
STRIDE didn’t punish the pause. It held the space.
I came back when I was ready.
Still surprised how good it feels.
