ABSTRACT
The instinct to tell a story visually is a fundamental human characteristic that dates back to the cave paintings of our earliest ancestors. In the millennia that followed, language was developed, which allowed stories to be passed orally from generation to generation. But unlike the cave paintings, these stories lasted only as long as the civilizations that passed them on. It was only with the innovation of written language that these stories were given a similar sense of permanence to those ancient cave paintings.
