The Orchestra of Ugly Writing.

Like other fine crafts, calligraphy is a form of precision engineering orchestrated by a group of senses conducted by the heart and mind. Dissecting a dot into halves and quarters, each form is a space, carefully and affirmably decided by the orchestra team. The angles are set to define the breathing passages. Then the ink is delicately arranged to flow with these spaces.

Every ugliness involves collisions of decisions and failures of control in the orchestra team. At times, it involves confusions of integrity. Time and practice are the main fuel to foster and mould the whole team in unison and harmony. This is the micro life beyond the art of the pen. It is a complete society made of the heart, mind, eyes, fingers, palms, arms, spine, smell, touch, feel, thoughts, temperature, pulse, subconsciousness, awareness, every millimetres of muscle fibres, every micro nerve points in every veins, and every form of space that dictates presence; all these, a complete nation that orchestrate the act of writing. This is true beauty, a world full of wisdom within.

That ugly writing, and so we called. Seems to be the pioneer to behave as commanding characters, to bear the responsibility in upholding wisdoms and works of life. Indeed, it is the founder of calligraphy.
