Graphic codes, language, and the computational niche
Behavioral and Brain Sciences 46:e256 (2023)

Human language looms large in the emergence and evolution of graphic codes. Here, I argue that language not only acts as a strong constraint on graphic codes, but it is also a precondition for their emergence and their evolution as computational devices.Other Versions
