VISCOM Reading One

One part of the reading that stuck out to me was where it had said "Graphic design is a hybrid discipline. Diverse elements, including signs, symbols, words, and pictures, are collected and assembled into a total message. The dual nature of these graphic elements as both communicative sign and visual form provides endless fascination and potential for invention and combination." I like how graphic design was described as a message. I believe that art is an expression of something that means something to you, but graphic design is your expression that means something to everyone.
