Geometric Shapes to Inform Language & Silhouette

So as we can create a language using geometric shapes, we created an alphabet using shapes similar to those in the experiment, where each shape is unique to one another and each is allocated a letter. This way, when certain letters are pieced together in a 3d form, a word is created on the shoulder, hip, arm etc.


Our shape encoded alphabet:



in order to create words with these shapes, we needed some words, so we randomly selected a number of words from the English Dictionary and went from there....


The words selected are: SLAKE... MEASURE... BLIND... ACHY... BLAME... ORGASM... WARDAY... WHOA... NOSTALGIC... PARENTAL... BAGNIO... VERGE... TRUCK... TRUST...

Here are a couple of the words in their 3d form using our alphabet:
