<p>This book examines the materiality of writing. It adopts a multimodal approach to argue that writing as we know it is only a small part of the myriad gestures we make practices we engage in and media we use in the process of trace-making. Taking a broad view of the act of writing the volume features contributions from both established and up-and-coming scholars from around the world and incorporates a range of methodological and theoretical perspectives from fields such as linguistics philosophy psychology of perception design and semiotics. This interdisciplinary framework allows readers to see the relationships between writing and other forms of trace-making including architectural drawings graphic shapes and commercial logos and between writing and reading with a number of illustrations highlighting the visual data used in the forms and studies discussed. The book also looks forward to the future discussing digital media and new technology and their implications for trace-making. This pioneering volume will be of interest to scholars and researchers in multimodality literacy cognitive neuroscience design theory discourse analysis and applied linguistics.</p>
