<jats:p>Computer Graphics has been a vector oriented high technology for interaction and its images have been those of a silent movie. Current trends toward raster scan in general are bringing together the previously disjoint communities of image processing, broadcast television and computer graphics. Present implementations in video format are making computer graphics ubiquitous. Jointly, these events are leading to broader definitions of man-machine interaction and more generalized applications of computer resources. The user community is growing to include people like: presidents of companies, housewives, six year old children.In this light, this paper is about not throwing away the message with the medium while offering new technological opportunities for communication. In many regards the old fashioned book remains the best random access information resource we have, but new opportunities include: personalization, sound synchronization, spatial data access.</jats:p>
