Visual vs. Written

Visual arguments differ from written ones in a number of ways. Firstly, and in the most basic sence, one can argue visually withought the hinderance of language barriers. One can demonstrate to a small child without language how to walk, as can one prove a point with visual aides to someone who does not share language. The essential difference is that although both visual and written arguments enter the brain through sight, the ways these types of information are processed differ greatly. Visual arguments may help information retention, and ease understanding of more complicated subjects.
