I have an aversion to buckets.

W. J. T. Mitchell once referenced a “gap” between image and text. Is there a gap?

When did you last respond to a text message with an emoji? What is the difference between “Thanks.” and “Thx”? What weight does a simple dot carry? Images have as much meaning as a combination of letters: perhaps there is no gap at all, but a reflection and refraction of each other like the iridescence of a dragonfly wing.

When is “O” a letter and when is it a condensed map of the universe?
