Haunted by memories of a manuscript on display in the (old) British Library, which was open to a page with Hebrew lettering making up pictures of fish and other objects, I've been looking for something similar on the internet. Haven't found it yet, but variations on the phrase "pictures made of words" are turning up some interesting images. This is the South Korea pavilion at the Shanghai expo; the letters making up the 25,000 panels are Han-geul (Hangul). More about the pavilion is here.
