1	Naturligt farligt : Hur visualiseringar av klimatförändringar är laddade med tecken och känslor Jägerskog, Mattias January 2010 (has links) <p>The purpose of this thesis was to examine the relationship between feelings and visualizations of climate change. A case study was done on visualizations of climate change from a web page concerning climate change published by the Swedish newspaper <em>Expressen </em>and from the American photographer Gary Braasch’s web page “World view of global warming”. The thesis is based on the article ”Emotional anchoring and objectification in the media reporting on climate change” by Birgitta Höijer. I have been aiming to understand the feelings of fear, hope, guilt, compassion and nostalgia through semiotic theories of icon, index and symbol.</p><p>Previous research has proven the difficulties in bringing the issue of climate change up on the public agenda – which is connected to the difficulties of visualizing climate change. The nature of climate change being slow and hard to spot on an individual level has been highlighted as a cause of both of these difficulties. Pictures and photos have in this thesis been seen as the “interface” between science and the public – and hence <em>decoders</em> of the science of climate change. Höijer’s article about feelings has been used to understand this process of decoding.</p><p>The results show that the analyzed material could be linked to and described by the semiotic theories of icon, index and symbol. The emotional anchoring found in the material and the semiotic application have been shown to work complementarily with each other, leading to a broader understanding of the material’s relationship to social cognitions. The results further demonstrated that context is essential in some of the analyzed visualizations of climate change. Generic pictures found in the material could have been regarded as icon, index or symbol of other messages – but is through its contexts anchored with feelings, and becomes visualizations of climate change. The analysis also suggests that if icons of nature could be connected with feelings – so could nature itself. The consequences are speculated to lead to objectification of nature and ecophobia. By objectifying nature and using generic pictures, the material’s relationship to the concepts of “truth” and “myth” is questioned.</p><p>In conclusion, understanding of the analyzed material is advantageously achieved through complementary use of Höijers emotional categories and the semiotic theories of icon, index and symbol.</p> climate change nature environment climate internet media Expressen Gary Braasch visualization images photographs emotions feelings fear hope guilt compassion nostalgia truth myth semiotics archetypes icons index symbol Höijer iconographic sign interpretant object decoding generic anchoring objectification ecophobia context klimatförändringar natur miljö klimat internet media Expressen Gary Braasch visualisering bilder foton känslor rädsla hopp skuld medlidande nostalgi sanning myt bildsemiotik semiotik urbilder ikon index symbol Höijer ikonologisk ikonografisk preikonografisk tecken interpretant objekt avkodning generiska förankring objektifiering ekofobi kontext Media and communication studies Medie- och kommunikationsvetenskap

3	Dr. Eleine Mad Jacobsson, Madeleine January 2021 (has links) Dr. Eleine Mad är Madeleine Jacobsssons talesperson för dom vetenskapliga och paranormala upptäckter som uppstår i hennes världar. Hon beskriver innehåll, teknik och estetik utifrån ett kategoriseringssytem där konsten delas upp som olika typer av komponenter och därefter avkodas dessa allteftersom. För att förstå intuitionens inblandning i arbetsprocessen omförvandlas den till tre separata roller av en Sökare, Samlare och Myntare. Med rollerna försöker jag beskriva på vilka sätt som intuitionen är till gagn eller av förödelse för det konstnärliga arbetet. Sagan om M handlar om en grodlik karaktär, Delop, som lämnar sin hemplanet för att uppsöka andra världar. I sitt sökande hittar Delop ett folkslag vars syn och levnadssätt skiljer sig från hennes erfarenheter av “verkligheten” såsom hon lärt sig att överleva i den. / Dr. Eleine Mad is Madeleine Jacobsson's spokesperson for the scientific and paranormal discoveries that arise in her worlds. She describes content, tecniques and aesthetics based on a categorization system where art is divided into different types of components and then decoded as they go. To understand the intuition's involvement in the work process, it is transformed into three separate roles by a Seeker, Collector and a Myntare(In swedish language the one who is a "myntare" -is verbally declaring a concept or term). With these roles I try to describe in what ways intuition is beneficial or devastating to the artistic work. The story of M is about a frog-like character, Delop, who leaves the home planet to seek out other worlds. In her search, Delop finds a world whose views and lifestyles differ from her experiences of "reality" as she learned to survive in it. / <p>Recorded sound and image material of the presentation is available for private use.</p> mjjgkjacb longing desire pang aj worlds shark genital symbol female sexuality worlds content the tale of M Doctor M mad life artifact animals figures emotional states red existentialism epicenter dog mythology folk beer whistle closeness aversions seeker collector myntare stagnation hibernation intuition sausage soup majdalakdemlsmikopa Delop Cow Lice snake hare sheep ödel oktor threat antipathy empathy fear performance function allow belief clitoral heroes monsters pink components situation dual nature euphoria bic-pens reality violence desert sea AQB brain holistics social codes self fairy tale space blue horse hell gotland dizzying flourish anthropomorphic jewels death plaster spiders commit survive frog whale bear purpose communication wild fascination animal incomparable monster ugly disturbed perspective marauder green symbolism who suffer anger reverence gods recast transformation yellow pry entrance interest alternative insignificant rigid position of power as disease real added disgusting wake up doubt mourn pray images horror plants rock stop mjjgkjacb längtan åtrå pang aj världar haj världsallt könssymbol kvinnlig sexualitet världarnas innehåll sagan om M Doktor M mad livet artefakt djur figurer känslomässiga tillstånd röd existentialism epicentrum hund mytologi folköl vissla närhet aversioner sökare samlare myntare stagnation dvala intuition korvsoppa majdalakdemlsmikopa Delop Ko Löss orm hare får Ödel Oktor hot antipati empati rädsla föreställning funktion tillåta tro klitorala hjältar monster rosa världar komponenter situation dubbla natur eufori bic-pennor verkligheten våld öken hav A.Q.B hjärna holistisk sociala koder självet sagorymd blå häst helvete Gotland vimmelkantig florera antropomorf juveler döden plåsterspindlar vägvisare begå överleva groda val björn syfte kommunicering vild fascination djurisk makalös vidunder ful störd perspektiv marodör grön symbolism vem genomlida ilska vördnad gudar omstöpt sammandrabbningar transformation gul bända ingång intresserar alternativ oväsentlig stel maktposition som sjukdom verkligt tillsatt äcklig vakna tvivla sörja be urbilder skräck växter rock stopp Arts Konst
