Is the potential for nonverbal, transcultural communication inherent in pattern and ornament? Does it concern systems of record that bespeak of locally disseminated cultural techniques, customs, and narrative styles?
 
Editor Annette Tietenberg, Professor of Art Studies at the Braunschweig University of Art, as well as authors from the fields of aesthetics and art, photographic theory, archeology, African studies, and the history of architecture address these questions in the book and reflect on how patterns are transmitted.
