Important thoughts by #DouglasEngelbart on symbols and their role in human life. I was not part of your discussion, but I found it illuminating. Thank you for sharing.
I realise that Engelbart refers to all sorts of symbols, not soecifically art, but reading his reflections urged me to look up #PrehistoricArt here on the Fedi.

Die unscheinbare Erfindung, die das Personal Computing veränderte
Im November 1970 erhielt ein Gerät mit dem Namen „X-Y-Positionsanzeiger für ein Anzeigesystem“ ein Patent. Kaum jemand ahnte damals, wie stark dies unsere Interaktion mit Computern revolutionieren würde.https://www.apfeltalk.de/magazin/news/die-unscheinbare-erfindung-die-das-personal-computing-veraenderte/

#DouglasEngelbart would be proud of me.
My computer has both a modern "Mouse Cursor," and a 1968-era "Bug" cursor... although a bit more organic than his.
