In today’s neoliberal economy, digital platforms have led to a proliferation in science popularization where scientists package their messages for the wider public. Our study explores how ideas are disseminated one of most widespread digitally mediated genres popularisation, TED talks. We adopt multimodal discourse analysis approach explore presenter orchestrates her speech, visuals on slides, ...

So far, data representation has been based on visuals. The huge size of data verges on overuse of the visual capability. Thus, there is a need to reduce the almost exclusive use of visual techniques to represent data in order to increase our perception bandwidth. In this research, we aim to solve this problem by integrating the audio component. More precisely, we are interested in representing ...

An interactive multimedia computer-assisted instruction on congenital heart disease was developed to increase nursing students' understanding of congenital heart disease. Computer-assisted instruction, with its ability to incorporate sound, visuals, and interactivity, provides a multimedia and interactive learning environment that enhances the teaching and learning process. Computer-assisted in...

This paper describes the underlying science and technologies employed in a system we have developed for creating and delivering multimodal Mixed Realities. We also present several aspects of a number of experiences that we have developed and delivered, when such aspects help understanding of algorithmic requirements and design decisions. The technical contributions include a unique application ...

This paper explores the possibility of generating visual expressions in a highly interactive environment on the basis of hand movements and acceleration. A new method for displaying visualization is presented. This method is known as hybrid raster-laser projection; in this method two projections are combined to create a final visual. A Wii Remote Controller was used to capture a participant’s h...
