with a view to trying to write more about the installation.
I noticed that, although the images of the emoji are in colour, none of the
glyphs has more than one colour used within it.
So I am wondering whether there could be a second installation about emoji with
a name such as the following.
Inbox 2: Emoji with more than one colour in each glyph
Today, emoji often, even usually, each have more than one colour in the glyph.
So I am wondering when did emoji with more than one colour in them first come
into use.
I have tried to find an answer but have not yet found one.
Does anyone know please?
I think you might be missing the point.
There were severe limitations in early years about what could be
presented on small devices; the selections shows compromises typical to
that era.

Here is a link to a web page that has some pictures of the emoji installation
at the Museum of Modern Art, MoMA, in New York, the pictures shown at one
quarter of the size of the original pictures that were kindly supplied by MoMA.
Thank you to MoMA for the pictures.
