In the article the author talks about the arrow and how common it is. The author mentioned that afer one starts to look for the arrows it becomes very hard to not see the arrows. I would agree. At first I had to really look for the arrows but after a while I could not help but see them. The article also talked about the evolution of the arrow. The symbol has been a around for hundreds of years and is very recognizable. But the meaning has changed. It once represented a weapon but now represents direction, It was once threatening but is now something that we see in our every day lives with absolutely no treat. In my pictures the arrows a presented a direction to go in. However the purpose for the direction all varied. In the monopoly game it tells the players which way to start and the direction to move the play pieces in. On the picture of the life game the arrows represent to different paths people can take in the game. On the food labels the arrow represent which way to open the container. The arrows also represent proof of freshness, like the two arrows on the salsa container. What I find really interesting is when the arrows represent an imaginary direction. Like the arrows on the CD player represent which direction I want to change the song to. I can’t touch or see the songs but I can control which direction the CD plays the songs in…I think is pretty cool…a conceptual arrow—and everyone recognizes these conceptual arrows!!!!!
