Author_Institution :

Abstract :
With respect to the historical role and capabilities of visual language, I consider the following three themes: why visual language now; what is visual language; and the paradigm shift of visual language. We are living in an age with the greatest volume of information in history. Each individual needs to be aware of both the purpose and how to make use of this information. Visual language serves as the paradigm for new recognition and practice
