- Since the
beginning of time, people have
communicated in many ways. The Native
Americans used pictographs, petroglyphs
and rock art like the ones at Hueco Tanks
in Texas as a means of expression. Today
we have digital glyphs. Digital means to
express through a computer. Glyphs implies
a visual symbol that imparts information.
In the 21st century we use digital glyphs
as a means of expression.
