From Silvia Ferrara <s.ferrara@unibo.it>linebreak===============linebreaklinebreakWorkshop: Beyond SCRIBO - Talking ImageslinebreaklinebreakThe ERC INSCRIBE team based in Bologna, is delighted to announce the fourth, and final, edition of its SCRIBO Seminar Series, which will be a hybrid one-day event.linebreaklinebreakSince the very beginning of their history, images, and writing too, have been used to convey all sorts of human messages. The event will go beyond what writing does stricto sensu, to showcase how language may or may not be part of a code, how images can be standardized and understood by a social group, and how figural objects aimed at conveying specific meanings can be part of a communicative exercise. Rather than addressing this through language, we aim to show the many colours that an image can take and investigate its potential as an effective vehicle.linebreaklinebreakProgramlinebreak12th June 2023 - Aula Prodi - Piazza S.
