So graphviz is probably not the proper language to use

Synesthesy interpretation of colours (numbers, days of the week, months)
Syntax highlighter
take in account the possible interpretations that people can have from a language (oral language = accent…)
Text based interfaces, text based parameters
The accent is the language?
the Bible was written in Latin, making it less accessible to a general audience, who then had to rely on the images present in the book, whereas protestantism is more focused on the individual interpretation of text
The borders are blurry.
The command line as a central tool in a design practice.
the other side of the interface, the command line being the accessibility of this alternate side
There is also a sense of 'purity' when writing code yourself. But then there are many more steps to take.
There is a paradox in the code editors; code is supposed to lead to interfaces but the code is already an interface in itself because of its highlighting syntax system
The result is 'delayed' instead of instant gratification in the process of designing. One has to wait for the script to run, which is a text based process, rather than a visual.
There was a generation that started to work with GUI's. Now there is a group of designers that work from a coding background.
The word shell comes from the fact that it brings multiple programs together.
This metaphor does still apply now with the GUI & command line.
This way of working is relatively new for the graphic design field.
Thomas had originally proposed this track
Tim Ingold, in "A brief history of lines" describes the evolution of writing text and points out the fact that written text was first written without any spaces and then litlte by little became "composed", with indentations, paragraphs breaks etc for readability reasons https://taskscape.files.wordpress.com/2011/03/lines-a-brief-history.pdf

Will this juxtaposition 'end in' a Beeldenstorm? (what are the implications)
Without icons pr metaphors.
Working in a gui sometimes feels like working as a blind man, not knowing what happens, and being focused on the outcomes.
Working in the shell is much more language based. It needs consious thinking and combining logical steps to create the outcome.

You need to speak the language of the text interface. Design & typography is very closely related, and now, with the command line as a central tool, even more.
