When we recite poetry, our body naturally moves and gestures to how we feel when we say certain parts of the poem. To show emotions of sadness when reciting a poem, ones body gestures in a way much differently than if we were to show excitement and happiness. Already, in early history were gestures a huge part in non-spoken communication and language. And til now, we use it to convey our emotions through language and poetry"

After reading the posted blog entry and knowing very little about sign language, the first thing that struck me was this sharp contrast between the light (represented by the communicative form of gestures) and the dark (all else lost in the transformation of the language itself). While watching the youtube posting, I realized that watching sign langauge is like watching the rhythm of written poetry come to life - in 3D. As if the words on the paper could speak to you, the hand gestures displayed a sense of feeling and understanding that could be understood by anyone, not just those who fluently understand the language. It was very interesting to see how poetry can be created by using more than just space on paper and words; it can be created, and arguably more intense, through the emotions on ones face and through spacial reconstruction of ones hands and arms.
