“Ugly as a representation of massive learning and experimentation”

As years go by, people are learning how to use new high tech tools. No matter if people think it is “ugly” it is fun and we are using tools that we didn’t have before. We are entertaining ourselves by creating ideas and things we couldn’t awhile ago. We are learning the language of these tools. We are becoming more sophisticated when we learn this new language. We learn these languages because we have to in order to create exciting new ideas and also have a great time.

Visual rhetoric
Companies that use images to communicate messages that persuade us to buy their products are a powerful tool. If you go watch a movie or a TV shows, you are inundated with these nonverbal messages. These pictures change the ways we think, and it also makes a big difference if the words and pictures come together.
