A communications satellite in space with to
its left Earth and to its right the green silhouette of a human face, with
one eye shaped as a satellite dish. Light beams between the communications
satellite, the globe and the satellite dish-shaped human eye, represent
transmission signals, while the satellite dish-eye is also connected to
various
kinds of communications equipment in
yellow, i.e. a postal envelope, a fax machine, a computer, and a mobile
phone. From behind the human face emerge several broad, blue, horizontal
lines, each headed by the silhouette of a different object related to
communication or transportation.
Printed in white over the globe is the logo of the National Communications
Day, i.e. a messenger pigeon stylized as a post horn with wings. The picture
won the first prize at the drawing competition for the 1993 National
Communications Day postage stamp, entitled
‘Communications
in the Next Decade’
and illustrates the development and evolution of communications from the
past and present to the next ten years, based upon the ideas, brain power
and farseeing ability of humans. |
