Re: A generic sign for Shape Forms (also called Still Forms)

I have been trying to think of a sign for “any Shape Form” (see my October 11, 2001 posting in the Motif Symposium thread). Playing around with different ideas, I came up with Ex. 1, which contains the signs for “Space” (Ex. 2), “Shape” (Ex. 3), and “any” (Ex. 3).

Does this work?

Re: The sign for “Screw-Like.”

Looking at my notes for the Motif Symposium, I realize that in previous postings on the Bulletin Board, I drew the sign for the “Screw-Like” Shape Form incorrectly. At the symposium Peggy Hackney said it should be drawn as shown in Ex. 5 below.
