Infinite Writing

Ecriture Infinie is a fascinating art project by Bili Bidjocka.

I thought it would be interesting to design a project around an authorless book, in which everyone would have written something. Its purpose is the process. Writing is interesting because it is a process.

Described as an interactive installation that celebrates and ritualizes the passage from handwriting to digital writing, Bidjocka’s oversize notebooks have been traveling the world, inviting people to write on the blank pages “as if theirs were the last words to be written by hand”.

Just added this book about fonts by Simon Garfield to my wishlist. If I had a bookcase that didn’t travel so much, I’d be tempted to order both the UK and US versions for the lovely cover designs.
