Grapholinguistics in the 21st century—From graphemes to knowledge G21C (Grapholinguistics in the 21st Century, also called /gʁafematik/) is a biennial conference bringing together disciplines concerned with grapholinguistics and, more generally, the study of writing systems and their representation in written communication. The conference aims to reflect on the current state of research in the area and on the role that writing and writing systems play in neighboring disciplines like computer science and information technology, communication, typography, psychology, and pedagogy. In particular it aims to study the effect of the growing importance of Unicode with regard to the future of reading and writing in human societies. Reflecting the richness of perspectives on writing systems, G21C is actively interdisciplinary. It welcomes proposals from researchers from the fields of computer science and information technology, linguistics, communication, pedagogy, psychology, history, and the social sciences. And, BTW, we didn't make the term “grapholinguistics” up; it first appeared in 1967 and was officially introduced with the current meaning in 2015 by Martin Neef. It is a straightforward translation of the German term »Schriftlinguistik«. It is not the first case of a mixed Greek neoclassical component prefixed to the word “linguistics,” famous precedents are “psycholinguistics” and “neurolinguistics,” less famous ones, “xenolinguistics,” “biolinguistics,” “cryptolinguistics,” etc. The Grapholinguistics in the 21st Century Conference is kindly endorsed by ACL (Association for Computational Linguistics) and by ATypI (Association Typographique Internationale). The first edition of G21C was held in Brest, France, on June 14-15, 2018, the second edition was held online on June 17-19, 2020, and the third edition of G21C was held in Palaiseau, on June 8-10, 2022.
