Researchers claim that artefacts have a vital role in the the development and communication of knowledge http://www.herts.ac.uk/artdes/research/res2prac/theme1.htm
How does one communicate using (map) artefacts, and what kind of communication is facilitated that would be more difficult or impossible using other means?
Can a map do more than simply illustrate a concept?
Do artefacts (maps) merely stimulate linguistic reasoning?
What differentiates map / artefact-based transactions from linguistic ones?
Under what conditions could a successful thesis be presented non-textually?

examples of Max Ernst (Dadaist and Surrealist artist) and Ernst Mach (physicist and forerunner of the Logical Positivists) http://www.herts.ac.uk/artdes/research/papers/wpades/vol2/king.html

subjective and the objective; The work to show that these binaries are not radical opposites but actually interwoven terms begins in the eighteenth century with Immanuel Kant; http://www.herts.ac.uk/artdes/research/papers/wpades/vol2/cazeaux.html
Can maps be quantified as a form of knowledge? Yes.

Idea for 5or6 panel Golden Rectangle "cartoon"? art series showing up/down spiraling changes in any subject/domain.

Use (PhotoShop) "Extrude" filter for advanced pixelation technique. Need to look into "Facet" and Fresco techniques.
