Description Yet another facebook request from the conworlding group. This time it was the test "with a tranquil heart take aim". The quote seems similar to "keep calm and focus" but by using the elegant wording it actually seems to be "the words of a calm mind" whereas "keep calm and focus" seems more like the hurried words of someone anything but tranquil. I think this wording more expresses someone who is tranquil as opposed to someone who wants to be.

I like the "aim glyph" form I used, it fits quite well with an arrow, and the I cup almost seems like a "target" of sorts. The "M clockwise loop" could be worked into the "I CUP", but I found I shifted the balance off center, and with this design centering or "aim" is of upmost importance I think.

Note the tranquil glyph, I jumped straight to the QU special double combo ( in the Dscript manual under Q section ). You could do a simple QU connection, but it is much less efficient, the QU combo is just a Q "cut down the middle" with a final downward motion of the pen after completing the Q.

Dscript, or Dimensional Dscript, is a 2d writing system. There are several approaches to 2D writing systems, Dscript is al alphabetical 2d writing system.

A 2D alphabetical writing system allows the "strings of letters" to branch, this is achieved by "forking" of the string or by placing letters inside of each others. When a reader approaches a "fork in the road" when reading a 2D script, he much choose a path to read first. Dscript reading rules are flexible, but I normally use top -> bottom, left -> right, Outside -> inside, shortest side chain to longest side chain ( this means when a fork is reached, first the shorter branch is read, then the reader proceeds to continue down the longer ).
