I don't know your kind of humor, but I think, you are Mr. Funny. ;-)
And it sounds really ironic.... MetaFont-Book without any
Pictures?
Ok, man, characters/letters are a kind of a picture too, so you are
writing texts without letters?
Hmhhh....
...if it was not all a joke, what you wrote above, and if you may want to
know, how daces can be visualized, then the keywords for that
are:
- laban-notation (very detailed and complex, but for all kinds of
_movement_ - any kind of dance and not only dance)
- motif-notation (a more practical version of laban-notation,
with a lot of defaults)
- kahn-notation (specialized tap-dance-notation)
I want to combine motif-/laban-notation and kahn-notation and
add conventional muscial-staffs (@Rotate 90d {staff}).
