Analytic and non symbolic

Analytic:= like a typical academic or encyclopedic article, technical research report or grant proposal, including the more graphic material presented in figures.

 

Non-symbolic:= anything else that is just as accurate and complete, no more illustrative and metaphorical, but less linear, usually less verbal and more sensual. Typically, non-symbolic information is delivered through a sensual (visual, auditory,. . . ) experience. It expresses in a compressed form specific pieces of understanding, concepts or ideas that otherwise might need to be delivered by way of lengthy analytic descriptions.
