Allmusic reviewer Brian Olewnick states "Graphics is a rare gem but a necessary one for the McPhee fan, and is well worth the trouble of seeking out both for its inherent beauty and as a key work in the career of one of the strongest players in the jazz avant-garde of the late 20th century". [2]

gollark: I'm mostly going because, well, social expectations to some extent, but also I can learn cool things, avoid having to actually get a job for some time (and presumably attain more money when I am to), and do fun university things of some kind™.
gollark: Not really, I'm just really easily distracted.
gollark: Oh yes, that is true actually.
gollark: This is empirically false given graduate income statistics.
gollark: Their course *is* substantially cooler-sounding than the other ones.
