BEYOND WORDS


CATEGORY: Book Design, Creative Coding
DATE:  01/22


Beyond words is an experimental project exploring the voice as a medium of expressing emotions beyond language itself. Collecting some love poems written by me and my boyfriend as the literary sources, I created a set of codings to visualize rhythms, intonation, and pace of reading through graphic elements. A poem collection with text removed is created to present emotional complexities lying behind pure literary experiences.
