The Power of Shapes
Early in life as toddlers, we learn to identify the very basic shapes of: squares, rectangles, triangles, and circles, just to name a few of them. Without shapes we could not form any writing system to allow us to learn how to read and write. Ancient cavemen and other ancient civilizations used Pictographs, which are symbols formed of lines and shapes as to document and preserve their experiences. Astronomers link stars together to form shapes that can help identify them and remember their locations in the sky. Shapes provide easy recognition in what an object or navigation is, especially in this day and age of icons. We would eventually be very forgotten if we did not use shapes in our lives, no matter how abstract they can be like the ones below.
