The visual language of Emoji | 12 Oct. 2024, 10:00

Words allow us to communicate, but what about joy, excitement, doubt, ambiguity, and the more subtle nuances of thought in today’s hyper-connected digital world, have we moved beyond traditional written language?

Broadcast: Saturday, October 12, 2024, 10:00 AM (Athens time)
