Since motion became integral to communication design, motion literacy – the act of understanding how motion can be used to communicate more effectively – is essential for both designers and educators. Communicating effectively through motion involves familiarity with the grammar of kinetic form, and that has already been explored within various disciplines such as music, choreography, and cinema.
It is important for designers to learn the language of motion and its complexities from these disciplines. It is essential to understand the language of motion as a manifestation of the temporal dimension of communication design and its multiple aspects of time-based structure and narrative. Time, as intertwined with motion, becomes the structural design element as well as the subject of design.
This session seeks presenters exploring experimental and multidisciplinary approaches to investigating time, motion and sound in the context of communication design.
