Asemic writing is polysemic, the opposite of itself.
Since the late 1990s asemic writing has concerned
itself primarily with the definitions of prefixes.

When you go, your mind goes with you
1. Prove to yourself that you exist.
2. Find some things that exist and approve of their existence.
3. Existence does not think it needs to improve upon itself.

Asemic writing participates in the tradition of zerufe otiot, but not in the tradition of decorative expressionism.
Asemic writing is a spiritual discipline, not a course in the aesthetics of quasi-calligraphic drawing offered by your favorite art school.
Asemic writing is a kind of poetry. Unless you think poetry is a kind of visual art, you have no reason to think asemic writing is a kind of visual art.
