Ink/pen dynamics and the rhythms of writing

[hiki33]

My hope was that differences in ink darkness in the VMs could be used to gain insight into when a scribe paused during writing, since that could have implications for an encoding method.  For example, if the writer consistently wrote [chor] as [cho] (pause) [r], or [char] as [ch] (pause) [ar], that could potentially reveal something about the meaningful units or building-blocks of Voynichese.  There does seem to be some such patterning among light/dark contrasts.  But the more I look at other documents and read others' thoughts here, the less sure I am what to make of it.

I think finding out the stroke order of each voynich glyph would be more insightful. I wanted to make a post about that, but I'm not an expert.
