The Future World

On 10th February 2010 Professor Mario Minichiello, Head of Department and Chair of Visual Communications at Birmingham City University, examined both the methods of visual persuasion and the influences on it by world events. In his lecture he questioned how these techniques may be used to change our behaviour to deliver a more sustainable future. The lecture also hosted an exhibition of Professors Minichiello’s reportage drawing work conducted for BBC Newsnight, the Guardian newspaper and the Arts and Humanities Research Council. Details and other Papers can be viewed through Google, or at the Lunar/ BCU websites. An online blog is in place if you wish to futher discuss these issues raised.

This was a joint event with Birmingham City University .
