Overview
Key facts
- Especially in today’s world of global communication channels, we need to know more about how images are perceived in order to create and disseminate them consciously and conscientiously. This field of Design Research focuses on the acquisition of knowledge in the wide field of iconic phenomena.
- Academic disciplines such as Art History, Linguistics, Psychology and Anthropology have described the need for a scientific approach to images. Most academic centers focus on research questions with a theoretical methodology. In contrast, the approach of “Practice-led Iconic Research” is focusing on the generation of knowledge through a practice based methodology.
- The University of Applied Sciences and Arts Northwestern Switzerland's workshop “Inquiry by Design” introduces participants to the practice based issues of iconic research in the area of Visual Communication.
