Abstract
We introduce a diagrammatic notation for supersymmetric gauge theories . The notation is a tool for exploring duality and helps to present th e field content of more complicated models in a simple visual way. We introduce the notation with a few examples from the literature. The po wer of the formalism allows us to study models with gauge group [SU(N) ](k) and their duals. Among these are models which, contrary to a naiv e analysis, possess no conformal phase.
