Neo Ideograms

The medium is the message. Look at how much more compact and impactful the ids are compared to alphabetic writing.

Ids are simpler, make more sense than kanji, and are to some extent pan-linguistic.

See how neatly I can render “Aristotle” (best end) in my ids? I thought up a few new ids while doing this transcription but didn’t bother to record them in my resource book. They are there in my memory. With ids I really experience the greater power of eidetic memory.

As usual, I will provide notes to this post for anyone who will write and ask. I’ve probably made that offer 50 times without any takers. I may delete this site and quit making my work public, since there is so little interest. I do it mainly for myself, anyway! It is my private, very rich and enjoyable world.

If anyone wants explanatory notes, just write to me and ask.

(a few days later) As sometimes happens, my initial enthusiasm for this version of “seem” wore off. What actually happened is that I didn’t like it in practice: I like to think in my ids, and this one didn’t stick in my mind well, was a little hard to hold. I think I’ll go with “think” plus the “iffy” squiggle that I dismissed in the above. Simpler is generally better. One good thing about it is that I can imagine the squiggly line either emanating from “think” or coming at “think”. I like this because “seem” does have this two-way aspect (“from my way of looking at it” vs. “gives the appearance of”).
