  • How are Images Used for Visual Argumentation?
    How Do Images Argue Without Logic? The analysis works out which pictorial arguments are used, and which sign theory or semiotics they follow. It also shows which arguments virtual reality uses, and how virtual reality argues about the illusion of architectural signs. Abstract: Twelfth International Conference on The Image, 13-14 September 2021 at Polytechnic Institute of Lisbon, Portugal.  
  • What do pictures know that virtual reality does not?
    Societies construct explicit forms of knowledge through images and through virtual realities (VR) in head mounted displays (HMD). Both forms of knowledge must be recognized and stabilized in societies within communication as being „true“. The lecture shows how the knowledge of images differs from the knowledge of virtual reality. Abstract: Tenth International Conference on The Image, 05-06 September 2019 at Manchester School of Art, Manchester, UK
  • Images in the Production Process of Cyber Physical Systems
    The current success of the syntactic code was only an evolutionary transitional stage for iconic image communication. The postmodern 3D image overwhelms the viewer by offering him a three-dimensional world of experience which he does not need to understand as a sign for communication. The function of the 3D image is less communicative, but it is both productive and immersive. Abstract: Ninth International Conference on The Image. 3–4 November 2018 at Hong Kong Baptist University, Hong Kong;
