Items related to Visual Communication: Images with Messages
The first truly comprehensive text for the viscom course, this text develops visual literacy by exploring and showing the role of images in the communication process. The first parts of the text present the latest scientific and medical information about light, the eye, and the brain (the how we see), the theoretical approaches to visual perception (the why we see), and the ethical issues related to images. The last part of the text explores the individual mediums of presentation (the what we see): typography, graphic design, informational graphics, cartoons, photography, motion pictures, television and video, computers, and interactive multimedia.
