The situation resembled what prevailed in 1956, when massive Soviet aggression suppressed a newborn Hungarian democracy. This time it was totally up to the Hungarians.

A structural approach to this pictorial language is presented along with a discussion of an information-processing model applied to optical illusions and computer simulations, and treatment of specifically paradigmatic case studies.
