Icon Analysis
One of the research areas in which I’m interested is that of spatial cognition. I find it fascinating how we cognize our bodily experiences and make meaning from them. Instantaneously, we create meaningful interpretations of our physical experiences through our situated and embedded cognition.
The article above examines human computer interaction (HCI) in relation to the icons we encounter on a daily basis. It approaches it from a neurological point of view and examines how we discriminate in terms of spatial distance, color, shape, and so on. Cool stuff.
