SIGDOC 2005

The 23rd International Conference on Design of Communication (September 21-23, 2005 - Coventry, UK)
"Pervasive computing delivers information technology into new environments for new purposes – in everyday products, in implanted and wearable devices, in global sensor networks, and in micro-machines. Innovation is needed, both to describe and document these systems, and to understand and exploit their potential for information gathering and retrieval. SIGDOC is a multi-disciplinary forum, bringing together communicators, information designers, computer scientists and others. We now invite these communities to propose and report the research that will produce this innovation."

Text Narrative Image

Show & Tell: Relationships between Text, Narrative and Image (September 12, 2005 - University of Hertfordshire, Hatfield UK)
"The proverbial picture tells a thousand words. Yet, images are rarely devoid of textual or verbal accompaniment. We use words to describe images, just as we use images to convey stories. Images and text appear in conjunction, and in succession, and these juxtapositions may be read as narratives. In sum, text, image and narrative are nothing less than mutually constitutive."
