Introduction to Mandombe
During the first two lessons, we will learn about the history of african writing systems, and where Mandombe stands among those.
Then we will proceed to analyse its philosophy when compared to other african traditions.
We will here focus on the fundamental component of the Mandombe System, the Yikamu and how it transforms to produce anything you can imagine.
We will then proceed to learn about the Mazita, which are the basic graphical units to produce sound and transcribe any sound one can imagine.
This part will focus on practicing reading and writing skills. One will also be introduced to Ideograms and Coded Writings in Mandombe.
We will compose, decipher texts along with emotions and be introduced with means to communicate in Mandombe using a computer or a smartphone.
We will then learn how to write texts including sounds, emotions, rhythms and musicality directly in Mandombe
