Abstract(s)

Using cellphones to take photos is very common and convenient nowadays. People can take pictures of anything and share with anyone at any time. In the digital age, the images are more liberated and democratized than anytime before. And if one day we could be able to rein the images to serve a bigger scale of communication, there might be some system and rules for using them come along as well. But despite that, at the moment, we are enjoying the fun of playing with the possibilities of the images. An exhibition which was held in the metropolitan museum in New York City - - “Talking Pictures: Camera-Phone Conversations Between Artists” presented us 1 this behavior of visual artists using visual elements to message one another - - Talking in Images, which actually happens quite often among people in the digital age. So in this dissertation, we will do an observation of this behavior, not only in the art field but also in the mass communication field. We will travel back in time briefly to see how people used images to communicate in history and with the information and knowledge we gain to look into the behavior of talking in images in the digital age.
