communication model

our current work in visual language has begun with a reconceptualization of a basic communication model. a communication model is a visual diagram or schematic to help understand the structure of the flow of information between communicators. a basic, simple model might account for two communicators, their message, the context in which they experience the message, the noise that obstructs the message on its path, the channel through which the message is transmitted, and the feedback about the message once it has been received. this, however, does not account for multiple communicators, or multiple channels, or any number of other considerations that must be made, particularly in our modern times, such as a conversion of signal that translates a message across channels during its transmission.

this is my updated communication model.
