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.

G21C aims to create a space for discussing the range of approaches to writing systems and specifically to bridge approaches in linguistics, informatics, and other fields. It will provide a forum for explorations in terminology, methodology, and theoretical approaches relating to delineating an emerging interdisciplinary area of research that intersects with intense activity in practical implementations of writing systems.
