Text is letters, symbols and characters recorded on any type of media that may include paper, computer screens, stones, papyrus, art canvas and much more. Further, text conveys information and is the written form of communication. It is intertwined with technology as we use technology (be it email, paper, text messages ect.) communicate at a rapid pace.
I chose this image because it is such an interesting way to display text. I know my students would be engaged by this piece. To me, it’s a perfect example of the changing spaces and fluidity of text.
I like the image.
For me it represents the whole idea of presenting text in new and interesting ways in order to grab the attention of students. Although we are used to text flowing in a specific manner, changes in presentation can even help change the meaning.
