Writing as a Visual Art Résumé

Writing as a Visual Art Graziella Tonfoni

Is writing primarily a functional medium of communication? Is it possible to access fuller potential for it to contribute to the quality of our everyday lives?

Writing as a Visual Art offers a revolutionary approach to writing by exploring a visual and multidimensional experience that is fun and common to people's experience. Clearly written and liberally illustrated chapters show writing text as akin to creating a drawing or painting, or designing a structure.

The result of discoveries made during ten years of research in the fields of linguistics, cognitive science and artificial intelligence, the author's findings have been successfully applied in education programmes in Italy and the rest of Europe, as well as workshops in the United States.
