From like 15 years ago, I have had photocopies of pages from a book (most
possibly out-of-print AFAIK, ironically). The book's title is _The Visible
Word: Towards a New Alphabet_. I found this book in the special collections
area of an university's art library I used to work in. It was published
around the late 1960' or early 1970's IIRC.
I wish I had written down all the publishing info and the author(s) as I
would like to possibly get a copy of this book myself.
