The Periodic Table of the Elements.
Is this really relevant to visual languages ?
I'd think that- addressing the Periodic Table of the Elements from the point of view of Visual Language would be relevant.
For example: Talking about different versions of the Table of the Elements, what they reveal, what they hide, and why it is useful or not. Explaining how the arrangement of elements works- that would all be topical, I think. -- LionKimbro
