Sound like one of the useal arogant academic try to patent the art ; "if you can't write correct english how can you then paint a picture, " ,"How can anyone who spell so bad even claim to know anything" --- the useal garbage that allow any english teacher to be a great designer as he spell so perfect. ------- The academic attemt to lure the remaining real arts into being just social skills , msspelled words are and have allway's been the refreshing element that change a stiffened language ,allowing the not so "fine" artists describe their visions ; this columbian "prove" proberly line up with what you so often see in this fora ,where cirtain people forget that you don't need to even be able to write one single correct spelled english word, to be a master painter or designer.

As if a spell control prove anything --- it is seen before, in this contry the academics back in the 50' was furious about the cirtain way some designers spelled particular words "wrong". It came so far that these rigid academics , "protecting the language" ( read ,protecting their safe belly ) , lined up with ultra right wings to fight the babarians who insulted the danish language, with their attack on the danish language.
------ The crime was that they spelled the words as they was pronounced and not in some silli 18' century way of spelling. These was ome of the true modernist fighters, and also they had their firht against "english teachers" .

it's not the spelling or mis-spelling that's off putting, it's trying to decipher arguments like the one above, that i personally struggle with.

Words in other words. Just words.

Hi vindpust.Long time no see

^^^ regarding the abobe post:
sorry for leaving my five-year-old unsupervized at the computer. funny shit though...

*above

wow nevermore, you're right, that actually did work

stromboli. I think it was done at the Cambridge University.Not sure though.

Im sorry ,It wasnt atcambridge university ,
a Ph.D. candidate at Nottingham University, Graham Rawlinson, did write a thesis (unpublished) in 1976 which alleged that people are able to decipher words and read fairly accurately when the middle letters of words (longer than three-letter words) are jumbled a bit.

and doberman dude..i'm NOT 5 years old.

I'm not familiar with the study, but I wonder if -- over time -- the mind gets better at it, or overall understanding is diminished? For instance, if one were to read a novel comprised of jumbled words, would one get better as the book progressed, or would the mind tire out?

This is a purely reactionary judgement on my part, but I think I'd get annoyed and give up pretty quickly (probably why I never finished Finnegan's Wake).

Incidently, I find nevermore's post easier to read because it's syntax and grammar is pretty clear -- also the words are spelled "correctly" just in the wrong order. Vindpust's post on the other hand omits words, switches tenses, and bungles possessives and contractions, and completely "misspells" words (not even all the right letters are there), and I find it more difficult to read.

Look at me: "... because ITS syntax and grammar ARE pretty clear"

NERDS!!!!!!!

"Hi vindpust.Long time no see"

Ofcaurse ,I just spend a few hours ,answering members in my Cyber-Boat groups and again had to xplain that ofcaurse also my old free-boatplan sites are now 3D-H fora's . Now this also put the 3D honeycomb framework in a perspective as the automatic generated building mass idea _was acturly develobet, to make an easy framework structure to build boats --- but then this guy say that a Guitar drawing I used to show the potential of 3D-H ,seem to look as a nice instrument ;; I suggest him to build this Guitar as he seem to know what a CNC Cutter is, so I couldn't spend time here ,esp when the subject is the least of my abilities Words.
Discussions about words just alway's was silli from my point of view, esp as words can't do a cheap safe house, in a new technology.
Only experience can, ----- Then on the other hand, why shuld Cyber-Boat an old boatbuilding group with 2000 members be the right fora ,well atleast it is not the lazy ones that joined it.

This is the Cyber-Boat site I refere, This is how 3D-H was develobed for a number of nice designs ,Digital boats drawings not 100 year old paper drawings ; with the nice side effects this bring.

CNC routers can cut other things than words and while they seem so ugly, why not get rid of it, artists are those dead guy's who's art hang on the walls of the museums,

nevermore,
that was totally cool, I understood every word in that paragraph, it amazing to me how the mind work, I participated in a similar study in grad school, several left-handed individual were given a series of shorts stories and we were suppose to circle all the miss spelled words, the same people were given painting and we were to find the visual errors, needles to say all the participants did much better with the pictures- similar result were found with right handed individuals but the ratios were more equally distributed.

hey dont invite per again to archinect

relax nevermore, i was just kidding, your post was great.
