Learning by images
October 2021 to March 2023
Based on a chronology composed of three case studies: Art X by Nelson, Girard, the Eames (1952); The Knowledge Box by Isaacs (1962), A World Without Words by Morisson (1988), the Learning by Images project postulates that since the statement of Weaver and Shannon's modern theories of communication, designers have been questioning whether it is possible to disregard discursivity and, in exchange, to explore the validity of visually transmitting knowledge and ideas through images alone. In dialogue with scientists and philosophers, Learning by Images wants to reactivate these questions and conduct experiments in communication through images, and works made up of moving images, by pushing these questions to their limits (subliminal images, mind control, etc.).
