Canadian/Columbian Andres Melo Cousineau offers a "critical stance on our dangerous desire for overspecialization" and this philosophical argument for why the Greek letter Ω (omega) is a better graphical representative for well-rounded generalists than is T (as in T-shaped people).
And graphically it works as well. This is primarily so because it portrays a gained roundedness, but with a certain permanent incompleteness to it. This is why it portrays, in contrast to the perfect circle, a permanent assured openness at the same time. Moreover, its lower extensions firmly ground its presence, thus clearly differentiating it from the upward arrow of radical progress in overspecialization. Such arrow seems not to be anchored anywhere. Such arrow seems to have no place. Little wonder such arrow-like view of things can do away with our very own planet, our unique place! In fact, our privileged letter “Ω”, instead truly has the form of a bridge which provides the interconnection between disconnected and disconnecting spaces.
