Zone Out with these Meditative Calligraphy Videos
In high school, I spent a lot of time listening to angsty music while staring at the hypnotic music visualizer on my laptop (I know, I was super cool). These videos of Instagram calligrapher King Blotto IIIare a little like that — the perfect thing to focus on while your mind wanders.
It’s also amazing to see how quickly Blotto writes. I’ve always imagined calligraphy as a somewhat tortured process (because ink), but watching how quickly he moves through letter forms and flourishes makes it seem easy.
You can watch a few videos below, but there’s lots more here.
