Meaning: An alternate way to view texts

TextArc is a tool that allegedly gives readers the ability to discover patterns and concepts in texts. Still in a developmental stage, it lets readers take advantage of human visual processing by allowing intuition to help extract meaning from a text. By exposing every word at once, the eye is able to make connections and decipher meaning otherwise overlooked by normal reading, thereby uncovering the essence of a text. Hamlet and Alice in Wonderland are available as full textarc texts, and other literary products are in the works. Intriguing; worth a visit. <http://www.textarc.org/>
