 The November-December 2017 issue of the *American Scientist* contains Daniel Silver's article [The New Language of Mathematics](https://www.americanscientist.org/article/the-new-language-of-mathematics) that features the [Quon Language](http://www.pnas.org/content/114/10/2497.full.pdf). In his essay Silver describes an extensive part of the story of pictorial representations in mathematics, including a discussion of planar tangles (a two-dimensional language introduced by Vaughan Jones). Our picture language project at Harvard includes the study of [two-dimensional](/2dlanguages), [three-dimensional](/quon-language), and [higher-dimensional](/hrt-course) languages.
