After reading this article, I found that there were many types of symbols that are used as alphabets of human thought. I decided to focus on ideograms. Ideograms are characters or symbols that represent a complete idea or concept according to the article. I feel that using ideograms is a very good and efficient way to get your message across to a large amount of viewers.
I thought that this one for a bicycle path was cute and very visible on the dark gray road.
I found this ideogram amusing even though it probably was not meant to be. My first reaction was that I was not sure if I would want to stop swimming if an alligator was coming after me with his jaws open wide. Also, because of the way these two ideograms are juxtaposed, it made me think that they were predicting the outcome of the swimmer. In a way, they may have been predicting the outcome of a swimmer if they decided to swim where hungry alligators were present!
