<div>Hi John -</div>
<div>This sounds very interesting. This could possibly
be a project for an MA degree or Ph.D dissertation in
animation or software development. Some of the
excellent programs that are used today in the
SignWriting world stem from bright enthusiastic
students who had good ideas and tested their ideas
while studying at a university. And very interesting
when they post announcements or questions here on the
list.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>So keep us informed if you find others who want to
work on this project.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>By the way, if you are having trouble seeing on
computers, you are right there are larger fonts, and
you can also access features developed for people with
sight impairment. Under "Accessibility" on some
computers, you can turn your screen black and the
letters can become white or yellow, and that can help
sometimes too. I use that occasionally. Recently the
Mac has a new OS 10.14.6 called "Mojave" and it has a
new feature where your entire screen can be black and
all type is white - it is rather exciting to work that
way and easier on our eyes sometimes.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>All the best - Val ;-)</div>

<p class="MsoNormal">My goal is to create a way to
use computers which does not depend on reading
very small symbols that ache my head or my eyes.
Perhaps I should use larger fonts or (yuck)
glasses. But to distract from the ache in my
head, I try to come up with a solution that is
beyond the sedentary lifestyle.</p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Some of us have worked on
using Natural Semantic Metalanguage (NSM) for
translation. Others have studied 3D ontologies.
Others have studied humanoid modelling and
animation. What I would like to work on in
addition, is the Fluid Movement Semantic
Metalanguage (FMSM) problem as well, if not
solved by Valerie Sutton in her MovementWriting
and SignWriting work. Perhaps the concept of
Semantic can unify Fluid Movement (physical
linguistics) and Sign (key frame), similar to
how Symbol unifies Movie and Shape (my focus,
based on PostScript, X3D/VRML and shading
languages with a hats off to Ted Nelson). I
believe this would mean that we would have to
come up with Prime Shapes (in addition to Prime
Semantics from NSM). I believe these Prime
Shapes can come from MovementWriting icons (or
the programs that create the icons) or from
X3D/VRML ontologies. If we extend our thinking
into time, then Signs and Shapes would become
animated into Fluid Movement and Movies
(possibly of hyperdimension). </p>
<p class="MsoNormal"> </p>
<p class="MsoNormal">What I’ve left out so far is
the semantics of grouping. Please discuss. I
think we’re just getting to that in X3D Models
in the semantics group.</p>
