2.1: Examples - "Hand Book" by Jean Benoit Levy

Jean Benoit Levy spent years collating together anything that used the human hand as it's medium. This covered many categories ranging from Religious, Instructions, Signs, Activism...

"Modern hand-hieroglyphs function as a sort of unofficial communication system that effectively crosses over the multiple barriers formed by the countless diversity of various national languages."

- Jean Benoit Levy

I like how this typology crosses over many different mediums and output and shows the huge potential and wealth of information in just source related found images.
