Explanation
Tactilely encoded writing whose signs are perceived with the fingers rather than the eyes. Detaches writing from sight and shows reading as embodied pattern recognition across sensory spaces.
Example
Braille dots are read as a spatial tactile configuration.
Counterexample
A mere label without the described formal or conceptual movement.
Distinction
Distinguish from Braille; the neighbouring concept remains connected as a crossway.
Effect on thought and perception
Detaches writing from sight and shows reading as embodied pattern recognition across sensory spaces.
Resonance
Detaches writing from sight and shows reading as embodied pattern recognition across sensory spaces.
