A Business Guide to Visual CommunicationColumn Five
As humans, we are biologically wired to process the world visually. We understand images instantly—long before we learn the language to describe them. That is why visual communication is the most powerful medium for transferring volumes of information. In a world of exponential information growth, we crave content that is efficient, engaging and easy to synthesize. Thus,communication as a whole, both in media and the enterprise, is becoming increasingly visual. But successful content is not simply created from words and pictures thrown together. It is crafted with intent, understanding and a solid framework. This guide will show you why visual communication works—and how to make it work for you.
In this presentation deck, created for a talk by Column Five CEO, Jason Lankow, we start out with some fundamentals from our book, Infographics: The Power of Visual Storytelling, and then discuss three important trends defining the future of infographics. These slides were talking points for the most part, but there are some really helpful examples and we would also be happy to walk through this content with you anytime if you would like to understand the details at a more granular level and to discuss ways these trends impact your organization.

Epistemic Interaction - tuning interfaces to provide information for AI supportAlan Dix
Paper presented at SYNERGY workshop at AVI 2024, Genoa, Italy. 3rd June 2024
https://alandix.com/academic/papers/synergy2024-epistemic/
As machine learning integrates deeper into human-computer interactions, the concept of epistemic interaction emerges, aiming to refine these interactions to enhance system adaptability. This approach encourages minor, intentional adjustments in user behaviour to enrich the data available for system learning. This paper introduces epistemic interaction within the context of human-system communication, illustrating how deliberate interaction design can improve system understanding and adaptation. Through concrete examples, we demonstrate the potential of epistemic interaction to significantly advance human-computer interaction by leveraging intuitive human communication strategies to inform system design and functionality, offering a novel pathway for enriching user-system engagements.
