Sounds ripped from cassettes & CDs found in immigrant-run mom & pop stores. Deconstructed icons. Field recordings. Sonic mayhem from the far corners of the internet.

I studied Arabic-Egyptian at DLI 1978-79. I know Ahl means family cuz we transcribed the words to We Are Family into Arabic- Nahnu Ahl-ee, aindi kull akhwati ma'i. The song was popular at the time.

My conversational Arabic is in the crapper. Mostly what I've retained is military and political. Phrases like 'Helicoptors are Flying over Our Sector!', and 'Revolution until Victory!'

I can't read Arabic but always thought it was the most beautiful script I've seen
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:53pm
Gary:

I've semi-learned to read it, but it's ridiculously hard b/c each letter pretty much has four different versions: Regular, first spot, middle spot, end spot
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:53pm
Gary:

And then god forbid someone does something fancy with the writin's ... then I can't read it at all haha
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:55pm
Michael 98145:

( Fascinating. "The Arabic alphabet is derived either from the Nabataean alphabet[5][6] or (less widely believed) directly from the Syriac alphabet,[7] which are both derived from the Aramaic alphabet (which also gave rise to the Hebrew alphabet), which, in turn, descended from the Phoenician alphabet. " )

Displaying my ignorance, I assume there are various fonts, akin to helvetica or times new roman? I read that the printing press was slow to be adopted in the Middle East because mechanical reproduction of the Koran was considered unacceptable
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:06pm
Gary:

I don't think there are fonts as such but there are two ways to write that I can think of; one of which is the simple version, wherein I believe a lot of the vowels are assumed, and then the complex way, with all the vowels marked in, which is how the Koran would be written out ... I think? That might be why it was so hard to do the Koran on a printing press early on?
Avatar 8:09pm
Hubig Pie:

Hebrew and Arabic both written right to left. Some letters pretty similar , like the written S. I have absolutely no knowledge how to type Arabic script on a keyboard. Yes Gary, the vowels pronounced would be written in subscript in a formal use like the Quran

All from Aramaic ! & to us metaphysically inclined sorts - the Hebrew Alphabet has rich mystical associations. All very interesting.
  8:17pm
Dean:

There most certainly are fonts in Arabic typography, and there's a literature about them to confirm the matter. For example, see this, which is way beyond my capacity to grok: https://fdocuments.net/document/authentic-arabic-a-case-study-right-to-left-font-structure-font-design-and-typography.html

Revolution Rabbit Nov63:

Of course there was a whole era in which Europe was in the Dark Ages - & the Arabic culture embraced learning - & words like Algebra & many star names for example derive from this to illustrate it.
The book 'Dancing In the Streets' by Barbara Ehrenreich has a great pocket history of what happened to both Christian & Islamic societies that is responsible for them both being more Fundamentalist & culturally Conservative.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 8:24pm
Zipperhead7:

That looks lke an interesting piece, Dean, though way beyond my scope. Scribal culture did persist a lot longer in the Middle East, as the Koran was to be copied by hand whereas there were no such concerns about the Bible, which was a constructed text with no "definitive" form. Elizabeth Eisenstein has done some fine work on printing history. And yes, love Ehrenreich's work!
Avatar 8:24pm
Hubig Pie:

Found my old Arabic-English dictionary- me thinks this one translates 'I am not an unbeliever (infidel)'
  8:28pm
Dean:

I know (rather, knew) Eisenstein's work from library school in the late '80s. I'm among the contrarians who dispute that the printing press was revolutionary in any meaningfully predominant sense. See, e.g., Adrian Johns, The Nature of the Book. Scribal culture persisted longer in the West than we're inclined to accept, too. See Harold Love, Scribal Publication in Seventeenth-Century England.

Yeah, I dunno what I was thinking, of course there are, and here are some examples, visually: www.google.com...

Fair enough re: printing press and media determinism. Not familiar with those books but will have to check 'em out. So many hooks, so little time . . .
