bingo, but it can also goes the other way back, the photograph example:
how much time do you need by tangling lines (or any other method you can come with) to define all the level of detail you are looking?
now, "no matter how eloquent" if the photo can be made digital it can be saved to file and it can be described with a rather simple language, all 0 and 1, so it can be done, and methods for being that eloquent exist...
what if the programs written on text actually are a representation of some more complex ideas? (IMO that's what they are, code is just the way of ... coding those ideas to text...) and text is visual remember... (same abstraction for words and the ideas they represent)
