ICONER: A TOOL FOR EVALUATING ICONS
ACM SIGCHI Bulletin, 1990Icons are becoming a popular component in the design of user interfaces. Finding icons which are most meaningful and clear to end-users poses a challenge to designers. To help with this challenge, "Iconer" was created as a tool that interface designers can use to quickly test icons with end-users.

Behavioral and Brain Sciences, 1987
The objectives of the present commentary are to show that (1) one important theoretical property of iconic memory is inconsistent with a retinotopic icon, (2) data difficult for the notion of an icon do not necessarily challenge the notion of an iconic store, (3) the iconic store, as a theoretical mechanism, is an ecologically valid one, and (4) the ...

The Degraded Iconicity of the Icon. The Icon’s Materiality and Mechanical Reproduction
IKON, 2016The Degraded Iconicity of the Icon addresses the challenges facing the traditional doctrine of the icon in a society subsumed by a profane attitude towards the image, and the problems raised by the use of icon reproductions within the liturgical context of the Eastern Orthodox Church.

The opening sequence of Stanley Kubrick’s science fiction masterpiece 2001: A Space Odyssey is set in a desolate arid region millions of years ago, where a group of hominids is first seen munching on bushes and meager green plants amid a herd of tapirs. After being driven away from their water hole by a rival tribe, the defeated apes huddle together in

Proceedings 1993 IEEE Symposium on Visual Languages, 2002
This paper discusses the design of icons as tools for improving visual interface usability. No common accepted definition of 'usability' exists: hence we operationally define it in terms of a number of operator's goals. We next derive the constraints and requirements necessary for achieving such usability, including both the designer and the user's ...

, 2008 The iPod became, for a moment at least, iconic amongst those hand-held electronic devices with buttons and screens, noises and "connectivity" that proliferated at the beginning of the twenty-first century. This essay explores how the iPod, in becoming an unobtrusive memory machine as absent as an internal organ on the body of its user, provides a ...

Natural Language Semantics, 2014
Sign languages are known to display the same general grammatical properties as spoken languages (‘Universal Grammar’), but also to make greater use of iconic mechanisms. In Schlenker et al.’s ‘Iconic Variables’ (Linguist Philos 36(2):91–149, 2013), it was argued that loci (= positions in signing space corresponding to discourse referents) can have an ...
