  Picture This: Literary Theory and the Study of Visual Culture   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Visual culture studies has developed around the idea that postmodernity is dominated by the visual representation of meaning, and that this marks its fundamental break with a modernity dominated by textuality.
A deconstructive analysis of the visual and the textual, for example, reveals that the two terms depend upon one another for their meaning in a structure of differences that are largely illusory when viewed in the context of everyday experience, where visual objects are read and textual objects are visualized.
Visual culture, conceptualized from this point of view, corresponds to life onscreen in the sense Mirzoeff is invoking, that form of the “pictorial” that morphed in the late modern and postmodern periods into the hyperrepresentational, simulated, virtual modes of image production that increasingly command our attention and disseminate knowledge in our culture.

 Visual Spatial Learners - Lesley Sword   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
When their IQ is assessed, visual spatial learners typically have a large amount of scatter on the IQ sub-tests and their scores on non-verbal tasks are frequently higher than their scores on verbal tasks.
Visual spatial learners with extreme physical sensitivities will be acutely aware of everything and everyone in their environment and they are often overwhelmed and exhausted by the effort of functioning in the world.
There are two keys to teaching gifted visual spatial learners: understanding that if these children are not visualising they are not thinking and so are not learning and teaching to their strengths not concentrating on remediation for their weaknesses.

 "Visual Literacy" - Innovations - Commons - Pedagogies - Romantic Circles
While often our current propensity to think via visual images is attributed to the proliferation of media technology in the recent past, the visual has been, of course, an integral part of human communication and understanding for thousands of years.
Visual literacy extends verbal literacy to include perceptions of visual experiences such as body language, photography, computer and advertising images, and television, to name but a few (Platt 8).
That is the goal of visual literacy: to develop critical thinking and imagination, further exercising verbal literacy skills.

Visual Management (VM) entails placing physical displays throughout the plant detailing instructions, performance records and other information required to make sure everything possible is being done to achieve the triangle of success.
I chose to visually show the three elements that drive a manufacturing company’s success and the resulting fragile and weird-looking structure that results when Quality is missing.
One of the greatest uses of visual management is to make employees aware of how they are progressing in continuous improvement programs in their area of responsibility.

 THINKING IN PICTURES: Autism and Visual Thought
Another indicator of visual thinking as the primary method of processing information is the remarkable ability many autistic people exhibit in solving jigsaw puzzles, finding their way around a city, or memorizing enormous amounts of information at a glance.
When I wrote Thinking in Pictures I thought most people on the autism spectrum were visual thinkers like me. After talking to hundreds of families and individuals with autism or Asperger's, I have observed that there are actually different types of specialized brains.
Detailed visual and musical memories reside in the lower primary visual and auditory cortex and more conceptual thinking is in association areas where inputs from different parts of the brain are merged.

 Kurai's Translations   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Visual kei loosely combined several genres together: the atmosphere, minor-key phrasings, and theatrics of gothic music; the lead guitar and (sometimes) guitar tone of heavy metal, as well as use of riff as melodic phrase; and the energetic drumming of punk.
In this sense visual kei takes most liberally from the rhythm of speed/thrash and the consonant harmony and melody of heavy metal, as did progenitors X Japan and their late 80s contemporaries.
Most visual kei fans this side of the pacific are teenagers or college students, and many are immature (to say the least) in their understanding and appreciation of music.

 Larry Osterman's WebLog : Does Visual Studio make you stupid?   (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-20)
Visual Studio doesn't make you stupid, but cheating your way to get things done without understanding how they work is why we have SO many crappy programmers out there.
In the case of the graphical UI designer in Visual Studio, you need to understand the code that Visual Studio is hiding away from you in that big generated region.
Visual Studio is the other name for progress in the programming world, but there is something that we almost always fail to remember, to notice, the fact that there are two kind of programmers.

 A View from Elsewhere : A "Live" Version of Visual Studio?
If you think about Office Live and Windows Live, you can see that "Live" is coming together to mean "software that is smarter when it's online and back-ended by a set of services." I think most developers get this concept intuitively -- that software can (and should) be better when it's online.
Thinking in those terms, I'd be curious to know how many people over the years really got any value out of having the abiltiy to insert an SETABORTPROC function inside a graphics file balanced with the number of people who spent countless hours trying to recover from malicious exploiters.
And I think a scaled-down version of the Team development stuff - sort of like sending a postit note to a coworker, that pops up when she opens the project - would be a nice feature for the Pro version.

 Do you think using Visual Basic is programming ? - GameDev.Net Discussion Forums
I think Visual Basic certainly should be called 'programming', whatever that word may mean to you.
I think it can be more 'programming' than C++ in some way, since you are programming higher level and thus you spend more time on thinking how to program the game/application/demo/whatever than on reinventing the wheel by doing everything low-level.
From this I started thinking that visual basic programs were another system of programming than "pure" languages that are assembly, pascal, c/c++.

 Gee, even LASIK surgeons think visual quality after LASIK is a problem
We all know that refractive surgery often reduces contrast sensitivity, yet we persist in measuring postoperative visual function with a test that was designed to measure refractive error and uses only letters at 100% contrast.

 What is the better Visual Basic, Visual C++ or Delphi ?
I think that.NET is very powerfull and simple but generated code is heavy, in few words.NET application is only for new machines with many memory and hard disk.
In the personnel, I prefer the Borland compilers, as much for the Visual developments, like those of console, they are more easy to handle and they similar performace.
Visual C++ is the best cos its got the power of C++.Also the MFC is supposed to be one of the best though its difficult to learn.For a simpler applications VB is good for its ease in programming.I prefer VC++

So I think there are a lot of standards in use out there—they just aren’t public.
Having a standard visual way to express those relationships means the architect can spend less time grappling with representing the architecture and more time refining it.
I think there are two reasons it has such a strong appeal.

 Microsoft Basic: 1976-2001, R.I.P.
In order to move the Visual Basic language forward, it is necessary to introduce incompatibilities between the Visual Basic 7.0 language and previous versions of Visual Basic.
Visual C++ is unique among the.NET languages in that it supports the managed code model provided by the.NET Framework, as well as an unmanaged code model.
No matter how good [the migration wizard] is, I think it’s pretty clear that anyone who has thousands of lines of code invested in VB6 is probably not going to invest in porting.

 Visual-Spatial Learners
Around 1980, I began to notice that some highly gifted children took the top off the IQ test with their phenomenal abilities to solve items presented to them visually or items requiring excellent abilities to visualize.
The main difference between the two groups was that highly gifted children also excelled at the auditory-sequential items, whereas children who were brighter than their IQ scores had marked auditory and sequential weaknesses.
It was from these clinical observations and my attempt to understand both the strengths and weaknesses that the concept of the “visual-spatial learner” was born.Visual-spatial learners are individuals who think in pictures rather than in words.

 Teaching Writing with Computers by Takayoshi and Huot
Toward issues surrounding visual rhetoric, Anne Frances Wysocki's "With Eyes that Think, and Compose, and Think: On Visual Rhetoric" offers a definition of visual rhetoric and she explicates reasons why we must consider visual rhetoric with we think about teaching writing with computers.
Wysocki's piece is a nice companion to the follow-up chapter, Mary Hocks' "Teaching and Learning Visual Rhetoric." Both chapters are wise choices for inclusion by our editors.
They round out the collection and reveal one of the most significant areas of research (and practice) - visual rhetoric and visual literacy - as teachers and students alike may move from reading/analyzing visual texts to writing/persuading via those same texts.
