s5231The Rykami Arysane Sketchbook |
The argam numeral set is defined by the prime decomposition of the integer symbolized. One method for designing argam is to produce an “infinite multiplication table”. Here one can mix the identities of the numerals according to their factors. Another method on the right page involves taking cross sections through the set regular digits of highly divisible numbers. The nomenclature studies build on ideas that were jotted on scraps and napkins during recent business travel. This sketchbook page represents perhaps the dozenth iteration of the endeavor, and is reproduced in the Rykami Argam. Page written 5-7 June 2007, tayya 7980-7982, seven dozen ninth phase (Salcyra-Karlmelal Xrga, “life phase of Karl Michael, Son”), Starbucks Chippewa at Lansdowne, St. Louis.
