Establishing a Research Question

Suggested Research QuestionI want to explore the different ways visual communication (on multiple levels) can be used to orchestrate, manipulate, influence and deter societal change
(something like that)

Which Theorists relate to this question?Louis Althusser
Beatrice Wade
Walter Benjamin

Which academic sources are available on this topic?
(practitioners/images)Experimental jetset
World War propaganda
Communist posters, old and modern
Resurgence of Marxist ideals in the younger generations of today
Possible links to popular culture - politically charged comics and films

How could the question be investigated through practice?

Illustrate characters
Make posters in the style of propaganda
Investigate how posters placed in certain places can have different outcomes
Start looking into typography and how I can combine it with the visual to make something more effective
