Visual Rhetoric Overview, Definition, and Examples Visual rhetoric, in a nutshell, refers to how we are persuaded by the things we see. Rhetoric (particularly in politics) often refers to language, whether written or oral, that is used strategically to persuade people to believe or act in certain way. When people talk about visual rhetoric, you might be inclined to think that they are referring to the way images are manipulated to skew the way we perceive things. Look at the graphic below. So what is Visual Rhetoric, Exactly? Visual rhetoric is part of a communication process where we interpret and make meaning out of the world around us. The problem is, we sometimes communicate visually without even realizing it. The fact is, visual rhetoric (or the way people interpret messages by what they see) is affected by a whole host of things. Visual rhetoric, in essence, is the meaning that comes as a result of what we see, affected by context. How Does Visual Rhetoric Work? Whenever we look at something, visual rhetoric is in play.
Designing to Inform and Delight: Drawing Inspiration from Milton Glaser Good visual communicators reach into the depths of culture and listen to its heartbeat. Those who really have the ability to affect an audience recognize not only what the people enjoy, but what they are missing and don’t know it yet. Some argue that designers are the architects of the future; they are the people that create the stuff we want, need, see, and use and thus significantly impact the way the rest of us view our world. For the last century in America, there has been sad byproduct of the need to increase wealth: the atrophy of good design. For all the valuable traits that have come with expedience and mass production (speed, money, industry, progress), much has been lost in regards to paying attention to details: we’ve lost, in many cases, the ability to both inform and delight. Design, visual communication, is a detail that has for far too long been ignored. I recently re-watched the documentary Milton Glaser: To Inform and Delight. Help spread visual literacy.

40 must-see vídeos about data visualization and infographics Our selection of keynotes, TED Talks and interviews by some of the top names in the field (The Joy of Stats, by Hans Rolling, one of the must-see videos) After the success of our collection of data visualization presentations a few weeks ago, we decided to push even further our research of multimedia resources and take the risk of selecting some videos.
