Cover Story: Calligraphy captures the spirit of traditional Chinese regulated verse (律詩). Its elegant strokes express the balance between conscious intent and spontaneous thought, mirroring the journey of mind-wandering. Regulated verse often begins with an evocative scene, using parallelism in subsequent couplets to craft contrasting mental spaces. As readers delve into these lines, they traverse a realm of introspection and vivid imagery. The concluding couplet offers a reflection, anchoring the self's place in the cosmos. This artwork and our study together illuminate the intricate dance of cognition within poetic structures. View this paper
