ASS. 1 | WHAT ARE THE CHAPTERS ALL ABOUT?

The first assignment is about investigating the possibilities of manipulating visual variables. We had to do this by analyzing four images, that were assigned to us, and trying to apply the theory about visual variables mentioned in the book of Colin Ware, to these images. But before doing this, it was important to have a better understanding of these visual variables, so we started reading and exploring the different chapters in the book first. By doing this, we created some kind of memo's on which we summarized the chapters by means of keywords. We did this for every chapter, which resulted in the images shown below...







Reading about the "real world" experiment carried out by psychologists Daniel Simons and Daniel Levin at the start of the first chapter 'Visual Queries', made us think of another experiment (also from psychologist Daniel Simons) in which somewhat the same happens, but this time with a gorilla. Apparently the lecturers also thought of this, considering the short movie about this same experiment that was shown during the first lecture. For the one's who missed it, have a look and watch the video below!
