- W2007665229 abstract "TO BEGIN project, I carried out a quick literature review to generate information about various applications of British Sign Language (BSL) Stokoe notation. An informal email exchange elicited information from very small group of academics who use BSL Stokoe notation, predominantly in United Kingdom. Next I formulated a set of characteristics, constructed a Latin alphabet, and prepared two new proposals for BSL Stokoe-type designs. The project was a small one, and time restraints did not allow for testing and feedback of proposals; hence this article in part also encourages feedback from other users of sign language notation systems. For now, therefore, project's conclusions, although they fully satisfy original project objectives, are limited to resolution of issues in proposed new character drawings, which are listed in appendix. Despite focus on type design, project deals with one key sign linguistic issue: representation of simultaneity/sequentiality in sign movement. Nevertheless, this article also aims to introduce overlapping concerns, those that belong to typographical linguistics. What exactly concerns of such a discipline might be have yet to be distilled from relevant issues in a wide range of subdisciplines, but more common phrase the language of design gives an idea of semiotic aspects they might cover. Because this project concerns of type, a character set to represent symbols of, in this case, BSL Stokoe notation (an extended variant of ASL Stokoe notation), one might consider focus to be on minimal units of such a typographical linguistics, for example, paying attention to individual strokes that constitute an individual character shape. For typographer (and in information technology [IT] environments, authors are ever closer to executing proper typographic tasks) choice of type is, together with choice of paper and page layout, one of first concerns in shaping a text. Allegro: Composing Text I fashion a book of words, sentences, paragraphs and chapters. I am author of this book. I fashion a book of words, lines, pages and signatures.1 I am designer of this book. The first book consists of language, and its words are in first place intelligible [verstaanbaar]. The second book consists of paper, and its words are in first place visible [zichtbaar].... For designer there is no need to visualize language I write as author because I already did this as author in preparing text that serves as copy to designer. The designer fashions-from author's book-a book. (Noordzij 2000, 6-7; my translation from Dutch) Inevitably there are huge problems.... [E]ven at level of deciding on symbols to use, process is a long one. (Bristol Sign Language Group 1979, 1) These two quotes are in direct opposition to each other. In first quote, Dutch designer Gerrit Noordzij establishes a clear separation of overlapping responsibilities shared by author and designer of a book. But distinction Noordzij makes is less clearly common one between form and content of a book as it is a deeper-level distinction between two different manifestations of language. In Noordzij's projection clear communication between author and readership is established only as a result of successful partnership between author and designer. Each contributes particular language skills in making of a book. Although without author there will be no book, without designer there can be no book. These two statements are subtly but critically different. In his keynote address to Association Typographique Internationale (ATYPI) conference at University of Reading in 1997, Crystal (1998) targeted this area of linguistic overlap; his speech was called Towards a Typographical Linguistics. In history of book, another emerging subfield, distinction Noordzij makes is also of concern: [B]ooks no longer figure as mere vehicles or packaging of texts; rather their material constitution-wise-en-livre-and layout and typography-mise-en-page-are recognized as crucial in recruiting readers and conditioning ways in which they read. …" @default.
