Emily on Yingelishi

I think I much prefer Yingelishi as an audio experience, however, the written text offers a kind of isolation separate from the meaning offered in the video.  The transparency of the pages allows for the layers of text to create ghostly images which deepen the concept of language just beyond reach.  Hearing the text forces the foreignness of the message out into the open, whereas the written text hides this complexity by letting the reader dismiss the characters not familiar to them.
