Learning Tai Chi is like learning to print block letters

Learning Tai Chi is like learning to write and read letters.

First you start off with block printing, then you go into a more fluid script.

You receive all that literacy unfolds. You have language with which to create feedback on the world.

I often lamented that fact that I did now know Chinese. Oh I had read Ezra Pound and thought I could see in the abstract ideograms some of the imagery that they were drawings of.

 

I did quite a large series of images that showed ascii "ideograms" of a human figure doing tai chi, floating over fractal labyrinths of swirling energy patterns.

Knight of a 1000 eyes explores in all facets the metaphor of language learning for increasing sophistication of understanding the communication of the body. Check out the Spirit Tokens Gallery to see further progression of the relationship between language and Tai Chi.
