Icons have grown in popularity in recent years thanks to the brink of technology and interface design after. Today we have over 800 emoticons to use from when we comunicates with others and sometimes even adopting our own meaning of them. Our current use of icons and emoticons as a form of communication is very similiar to pre-incan peruvian cultures. Their use of icons where based on their cultural and spiritual believes, making iconographic images that represented religion and lasting over 1,000 years. How do we use iconography in our cultures and social groups?
