“We're lonely, but we're afraid of intimacy. And so from social networks to sociable
robots, we're designing technologies that will give us the illusion of companionship
without the demands of friendship.” — Sherry Turkle

What is a Word?
Sounds connected to some type of grammatical structure.
•According to the Bible, God uses words to create
objects (referents).
•According to scientists and linguists, babies
associate the words they hear with an object
(referent).
We focus on what is said and who said it.
Credibility anchors grammatical structure.

“Speech requires a clearly defined syntax which allows us to articulate
propositions of truth and falsity.”-Sol Worth, Artist
Power of Words + Images

What is an Image?
Modern images are socially constructed artifacts without a
clearly defined syntax.
“Words can state what is. Pictures can not.”
Question:
Is the sun in the picture rising and setting?
Power of Words + Images
prophetiksoul.com

Images imply that you are only
a receiver while speech implies
listening and dialogue.
Therefore, images cannot
function like speech and
language.
Since images can limit our
vocabulary, they can’t be
neutral.
“I have 1000 friends and feel more alone
than ever.”—Lisa Simpson

The 3 musicians
Picasso
1921

Written language is
unidimensional. Language
interprets images, not
vice versa. When
constraints are removed,

Cohesiveness
collapses

Rise of
Image

Images are multidimensional because there
may be no clear hierarchy.
It uses perspective,
metaphor, depth, texture,
subject matter, etc. This
makes it easy to
misinterpret, accept
someone’s interpretation or
multiple interpretations.

Escher

Rise of the Image Culture
prophetiksoul.com

What is an Image Culture?
Visuals that emphasize narratives especially in
art/commerce and literature.
•Globalization
(decentralized power, borderless
multinational companies)
•Invention of computing technology
(fragmentation; faster spread of
innovation and ideas)
• Growing importance of media

Data excerpts from Did You Know 3.0 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YmwwrGV_aiE
Social Media
prophetiksoul.com

The image culture IS the social media universe!
"Additional perils to the self and more indirect harms to
others arise when youth's identities become deeply
fragmented, when self reflection is overshadowed by self
promotion, or when the youth become overly dependent on
the feedback of others."
--Young People, Ethics, and the New Digital Media: A Synthesis
from the Good Play Project, p.28
Information and images move faster obscuring our ability to
decipher the context or meaning. So we choose amusement.

A= non; not

MUSE= think
