Orthographies (Written Systems)
I have created a number of writing systems for conlangs over the years, as well as digital fonts. Many of these systems have different physical modes (e.g. runes vs. cursive) and different modes to be used for different languages (think different spelling rules between languages).
Rílin orthography

Calligraphic writing in Seloi in the shorthand mode of the Vinuvu script. "Jil jelani na kehake ste?" "Do you love me?"
Rílin runic script.

Musical Notation Systems
Since I compose and perform music in constructed languages, I have also created specialized musical notation systems based on unique musical scales. Here are some examples of glyphs involved in the notation. Click here to find out about my conlang instruments and unique factors of culture that go into them.
Gotevian Notation
This is the Gotevian musical notation system. It includes glyphs made into a font for each note, so sheet music can be written easily for any song composed in Gotevian. Below, you can see the song "Emé Feréae" (Across the Forest) composed in this system.

Rílin Notation
The Gotevian system is also be used to write music for Rílin songs, such as this example of a Rílin lullaby Beluky Ó Lymí (Sleep, oh Child). You can listen to a recording of that song here.
Tosi Notation
To the Right is another notation system with different glyphs. This system is used to represent the Tosi musical scale. These glyphs are taken from an excerpt of a Tosi war march, called Zhumzhum ZÅ«r (Death is Creeping). Click here to hear the song.
