*Graphics solve abstraction like a problem
*Graphics are an intermediate step between an image and the abstract
*Graphics are a mediator between things and abstraction
*Graphics are a delivery system for the abstract
*Graphics disguise abstraction as image
*Graphics organize abstraction (see above)
*Graphics make puzzles out of solutions
*Graphics monetize the abstract
*Graphics is abstraction done at a desk
*Graphics pull the world apart. Abstraction tears it up.
*Graphics are how we agree to see. Abstraction is an argument.
*Graphics are the memories we have of things. Abstraction is what things we do not remember look like.
