Two more examples of graphics — in the double sense of the word, or graphics squared if you like, where graphs, in the node and edge mathematical & network sense are used within graphics, in the visual or illustrative sense:<\/p>\n

The first comes from a page on Carnegie Europe’s Strategic Europe blogpost titled Cyberspace and the World Order<\/a>:<\/p>\n

The second is from the Eventbrite invite to The Future of Cybersecurity: A Conversation with Admiral Mike Rogers<\/a> at Georgia State University<\/strong> on Moday 24th at 10am, courtesy of John Horgan<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

From a graphic (visual) perspective, the symbolic content is in each case interesting, and I’d be glad to read any comments on why, for instance, there’s a honeycomb hex grid in the upper image, and why the information flow is so much more curvaceous after the lock than before it (assuming a left-to-right reading in temporal sequence) — and in the lower image, why some of the nodes and edges are slowly getting stained red (and here I’m guessing an epidemiological image for the spread of a virus). <\/p>\n

From a graphic (graph as potential HipBone game board<\/strong>) perspective, the upper graph doesn’t offer a game board as I envisage them, but the lower one certainly does, albeit this would be a complex game, with the sizes of nodes and lengths of edges to be taken somehow into account.<\/p>\n
