About the instrument

Tone Glyph

A living studio for giving an intention a visual form.

Choose geometry, movement, colour and sound; then shape a glyph that can be played with, kept or simply allowed to change. There is no correct symbol to discover.

Tone Glyph circular geometric mark

Shape

Begin with a form, trace or family of shapes and alter its balance, density and depth.

Give it tone

Colour, motion and optional sound let the glyph carry a quality rather than merely name it.

Keep or release

Save a form to this browser when it matters, or leave without turning the moment into a record.
