| Synopsis: |
This work explores writing as a visual, multi-dimensional experience that is fun and common to everybody. Chapters examine how writing is akin to drawing, painting or designing and then present concepts such as "textual objects", "textual machines" and "shaping up text" as aids and techniques for effective writing. The book is the result of ten years' research in linguistics, cognition and artificial intelligence. Tonfoni's discoveries of new ways of communicating have been applied in programmes for high school and university students in Europe and training workshops in the US. "Writing as a Visual Art" makes Tonfoni's contributions available to the English-speaking general public. For readers at all levels, the work offers a new way to think about the writing process, visual tools for creating text and encouragement that writing is a natural, enjoyable and effective way of communicating. |
