Reading Response

These first two readings, although short, expand much on what i had discovered Graphic design to be. The second reading especially expands on graphic design as a communication device. All art is communication in some way, but with Graphic Design, that communication is even more important. It's not a one way communication. Its not only about broadcasting what you, the artist, wants to say. It is quite reliant on the audience as well. The viewer needs to buy into, and/or understand what the artist is depicting. That is something I hadn't quite thought about before. It makes sense with this in mind, that collaboration and research are musts for a Graphic Designer.
