Narrative Representations

I found the chapter very interesting. It is wonderful in its theoretical proposition and practical information. As a beginner in visual communication, I found the interpretation of the certain shapes representing movement and certain characteristics very useful for me to understand images. I was not able to see image in terms of broader organization before reading this chapter. The idea that the image does not merely reflect but manipulates reality is what this books shares with the other book we have read. The interpretation of the encounter between the whites and the Aboriginals made me see picture in terms of the basic shapes.
