      One day someone will calculate the amount of information conveyed in facial expressions, and it will turn out to be enormous.

      Incidentally, one way to do it would be to decrease the resolution of images of faces till subjects describe them differently.

          @paulg I'd bet the jump from no resolution (face-to-face) to high resolution (digital) would be the critical increment

          @paulg that would rely on humans being consciously aware of, and having the language skills to convey everything that they absorb.
