I agree that the author has mislabeled "text".

What are characters if not pictures? What is text if not a sequence of pictures? What's a picture if not a depiction of a concept?

In a bag-of-words type of model, I see no difference between a word and a painting, no difference between the body of work of van Gogh and the body of work of Kafka. They both use multiple sets of concepts to compose new sets of concepts.

Pictures and text are both programming languages of concepts.
