NOTATIO VOYNICHIANA - A Modern Voynich Manuscript
Year: 2026
Type: article
Abstract: In a previous paper, I demonstrated how a 13-facet notation could be used to regenerate the Voynich running text from a choice of source material. Faceted notation provides a simple mechanism for abstracting content from text while retaining structure and form. The resulting notation is fully reversible if the meaning behind the facets is understood. The attached sample is taken from a book that I have created using the 13-facet notation. The sample shows how words taken from a source document can be converted into 'records' laid out in notation form and in turn, committed to paper as running text in a custom script that I have created - Notatio Signs. I have also included an image of the book's front cover - I leave it up to the reader to draw their own conclusions, but I hope that it will catch the imagination of the expert and amateur alike - curiosity will definitely reap rewards. The book will be available on Amazon very shortly. It it over 800 pages long and covers three different types of source material. An aesthetic as well as an informative experience.
