  • Abstract
    Pictorial histories on cave walls constitute the earliest forms of preserved prehuman and early-human communications, representing the essence of the storyteller´s art. As civilizations grew, so did the iconic nature of storytelling, yet we´re no different today - our walls are just more likely to be on Facebook than deep inside caves. As we make our way through the digital transformation, a return to visualization is occurring that adheres to the storyteller´s craft of appealing to our tribal sensibilities.
