Asserting that written language is on the verge of its greatest
change since the advent of the printing press, visual artist Craig
McDaniel and art historian Jean Robertson bring us Spellbound - a
collection of heavily illustrated essays that interrogate
assumptions about language and typography. Rethinking the alphabet,
they argue, means rethinking human communication. Looking beyond
traditional typography, the authors conceive of new languages in
which encoded pictorial images offer an unparalleled fusion of art
and language. In a world of constant technological innovation
offered by e-books, tablets, cell phones and the Internet, McDaniel
and Robertson demonstrate provocatively what it would mean to move
beyond the alphabet we know to a wholly new system of written
communication.
