Judging Calligraphy Excellence Based on Velocity
“Drawing calligraphy can be defined through electric and magnetic field movements… To lift, we must press, and to draw right we must close the stroke by turning the brush left. These are equal and opposite, and reinforce each other, creating waves and moving with the flow of the energy waves in a seamless creation of a calligraphy masterpiece, guided by electric and magnetic fields.”
