At SuperCon ages weeks ago, we completed a small photo project, our first of to-be many a foray into body writing. Fun stuff.

Modern calligraphy ranges from functional hand-lettered inscriptions and designs to fine-art pieces where the abstract expression of the handwritten mark may or may not compromise the legibility of the letters (Mediavilla 1996). Classical calligraphy differs from typography and non-classical hand-lettering, though a calligrapher may create all of these.

Colorful mochi; calligraphic labels. That’s how I roll in hotel rooms.

What’s in my Bag- 1/29/12




What’s in my Bag- 1/29/12, originally uploaded by ABMann.

This has been my daily carry for the last twoish weeks. Of note, I have started using some little bags an ex-girlfriend bought me ages ago. They fit my pens and nibs (I’ve taken up calligraphy) and various other stuff- iPhone cards, extra batteries, drugs. They are made of Kevlar ad are awesome.

I’m continually impressed how much I can fit comfortably in this Saddleback Leather bag. I shouldn’t as it is the best bag ever and is, subsequently, fashioned from pure awesomanium.

Calligraphy is fun. My handwriting is far better with dip pens than ballpoint.
