the concept of writing

The concept of writing is, or rather can be, much wider then most people would suppose. You can write with sound, you can write with texture and line. You can write with the voice as it appears, or the voice recorded. Waves of static become a barrage of letters and syllables. Punctuation can be pronounced: …..,,,,,,,,?????!!!!!!!’’’’!!!!!!

Sound expelled from the mouth is a direct action as opposed to letters on a page. Letters on a page in static form are the footprints beside the walk. Visual texts come inbetween.
