Fast Fact

Following the Oct. 7 massacre, Israelis began building resilience though interactions with text. At the site of the Nova music festival, visitors memorialize the victims by adding letters to a Torah scroll, a way of fulfilling the mitzvah of personally writing a Sefer Torah. Another unique way is the Ot Hayim (“Sign of Life”) Initiative, through which graphic designers are creating digital fonts from the handwriting of the fallen soldiers and murdered civilians.
