Abstract:

The objective of this work is visual recognition of speech and gestures. Solving this problem opens up a host of applications, such as transcribing archival silent films, or resolving multi- talker simultaneous speech, but most importantly it helps to advance the state of the art in speech recognition by enabling machines to take advantage of the multi-modal nature of human communications. However, visual recognition of speech and gestures is a challenging problem, in part due to the lack of annotations and datasets, but also due to the inter- and intra-personal variations, and in the case of

Abstract:

Designers are often concerned with communication through the visual; we focus on the printed object, images on screens, furniture, spaces, and other visual experiences. We should also be cognizant of audio and its communicative properties, especially when contextualized with visual content. Pairing visuals and audio can make a greater impact upon a viewer/listener than each media might make alone. My research focuses on a practice of working within strict sets of rules and boundaries to create visual-audio work. This visual-audio work not only communicates a concept or idea, but also lives as

Abstract:

This work is a study on the phenomenon of monumentality. It combines examples and theories from art and architecture and seeks to explore its counterparts in the context of visual communication and graphic design. The project focuses on forms and materials of culturally inherited power and explores how these aspects of monumentalism could be used as a design tool. The final result of this project was presented as a lecture and an exhibition, in excess of this written report.

Abstract:

The central original contribution to knowledge proposed by this thesis is the setting forth of a conceptualisation of ethical theory specifically in relation to design, with a focus on visual communication design. Building on earlier work by design theorist Clive Dilnot in the area of design ethics and on philosopher Giorgio Agamben’s formulation of the philosophical concept of potentiality, a way of thinking about the relationship between design and ethics is proposed which concludes that design is in fact always inherently ethical. However, this conception of ethical design purposefully leav

Abstract:

Though images are ubiquitous in everyday life and have always been part of politics, research on the visual aspects of political communication recently gained momentum, especially with the rise of social media. This opens up a platform to analyze the role of visuals in communicating political ideas. Images are a key part of the communication process, shaping peoples’ attitudes and policy preferences on political ideas. Generally iconic themes dominate representation of political ideas, for example iconic themes like polar bears represent the issues of climate change and environmental policies.

Abstract:

Visual storytelling has come a long way since primitive man began creating colorful, narrative cave paintings. In this new age of technology, motion pictures have become a prevalent medium for visual storytelling throughout the developed world. Filmmakers have the added advantage of being able to create more and more fantastic settings and stories with the introduction of computer generation images (CGI). They also gain a fine degree of control over the visual elements of the final product. The ultimate goal, though, has always been the same: to create a visual story with a distinct mood that

Abstract:

This thesis argues that the content of popular Chinese TV dramas helps construct and reenforce social and political reality in China by defining what is true. With the increasing liberalisation of the Chinese TV drama market, this construction process is becoming more and more complex: it is not merely influenced by the political interests of state and party institutions, but also by the commercial interests of producers and broadcasters, as well as by the viewing habits and interests of audiences. Consequently, Chinese TV dramas create ideas concerning Chinese society which are simultaneously

I am interested in two spaces obverse to each other: open and closed. An open space develops organically based on how people inhabit it. Interacting with an open space is a dynamic, sporadic, multisensory, immersive, and subjective experience. In such spaces, we are confronted with an alternative aesthetic, one that is in conflict with the seamlessness of a closed space. A closed space is anchored on definite variables like structure, use and boundaries. While interaction between people and space is important, the space is tightly controlled and interaction is designed. Through this thesis pro

Abstract:

With reference to language teaching, this research examines current trends in the combination of pictures and print. Assuming that when combined in texts, these utilize differential disclosures of visual and verbal feature, the research establishes some important provisos. Foremost among these is the stipulation that words and pictures do not communicate with each other in the same way. Thus although, on paper, they may be comprehensibly united, in their disclosure of features they remain mutually exterior and coded apart. Generalising from this, the study surveys other sources of exteriority
