“If he didn’t work in comicbooks, Chris Ware would be famous by now. And he may yet be — after being selected for the Smithsonian’s design triennial, and having his work published in the New Yorker, his first general-trade book, Jimmy Corrigan: Smartest Kid on Earth, will appear in September. ‘This is like welcoming James Joyce into the ranks of novel writers,’ says Art Spiegelman, another New Yorker artist and the author of Maus. ‘This new book seems to be another milestone in the demonstration of what [comics] can be.’” See also Right Way, Corrigan.

“This discussion of visual perception is part of an introduction to media theory. The prime concern here is with how mediated our experience of the world is. The study of visual perception offers considerable evidence that the world or the image is not ‘given’, as people sometimes say, but constructed. In visual perception we are not like passive cameras, and even the idea that the mind takes selective ’snapshots’ underplays our active interpretation of the world. These notes focus on key factors which contribute to shaping what we see.” Note: Lecture notes for an Introduction to Media Theory class at the University of Wales.
