This course will cover both, an introduction to<br />
visual communication and visual culture.<br />
Visual communication on the one hand involves<br />
the understanding of the perception of<br />
visual messages as well as their production.<br />
We will go into the evolution and neurology<br />
of the human perceptual apparatus, examine<br />
what the cognitive sciences can tell us about<br />
vision that we cannot know from common<br />
sense. Topics for further analysis will range<br />
from advertising to art, covering potentially<br />
all visual media from graffiti to photography,<br />
from film to visually augmented reality.<br />
Visual culture on the other hand discusses<br />
socially and culturally determined ways in<br />
which we view and accordingly reproduce<br />
visual communication. We will explore visual<br />
identity formation – call it image management<br />
or body-building and plastic surgery -<br />
ethnic and gender biases, virtuality, and the<br />
global visual culture in the making.<br />
