Hieroglyphics used in old Egyptian times communication- through symbols, signs, and pictures; non-verbal interactions. Ancient Egyptians interpreted at a glance meanings and feelings. Symbols would stir emotions- provide factual knowledge. Hieroglyphics exist in these modern times; new name- Emoji. Used in our digital world; pictures like smiley faces. Just like hand signals, Emojis speak non-verbal emotions, feelings- a whole thought in one image enhances verbal insights. Holograms- new tech; 3-D visions, light-induced. Like feats of magic- project images, not there; visions that hang in the air. Where will this tech lead? Like ancient Hieroglyphs replaced by plain words- will we reverse the process, draw 3-D signs in the air? Language of symbols holograms show more than words- images and signs 3-D Hieroglyphics; expressions of tomorrow? April 10, 2016
