THE LOGIC ALPHABET
In 1953, while working a hotel switchboard,
Shea Zellweger began a journey that would culminate in a radical new
notation for formal logic, the set of relations underling modern
computing. From a garage in Ohio, Zellweger developed a visual language
he called the “Logic Alphabet,” in which a group of specially designed
letter-shapes are maneuvered like puzzle pieces to reveal the geometric
patterns hidden beneath the symbolic web. In this jewel box exhibit,
the Institute for Figuring and the Museum of Jurassic Technology present
Zellweger’s Logic Alphabet models and drawings.
