Abstract

What we call "graphic language" is the combination of three fundamental modes of languages; they are linked to the intrinsically communicational condition of graphics and design. Human communication has its founding vehicle in Language, which is its specific way of constructing and transmitting meanings. But graphic, gestural, chromatic, etc. 'languages' are visual extensions derived from the Language par excellence: speech.
