Porcupine Tree - Signify (1996)

It does not signify!

A phrase very unique to Bridgerton for me, I'd never heard the word "signify" used in such a way before. Or maybe I just hadn't heard it recently, that it really stuck out! In any case, it feels particularly classical and I love how it captures a concept so neatly in one little word.

I present the master of "signifying", Anthony Bridgerton:

But as it turns out, it runs in the family. Shown here by dear Daphne, who's worried about all the signifying that's going on:

But really, they must've learnt it at the knee of Mama Bridgerton, who used it so expertly at the end of this sentence. I think it's a passive verb sentence...? I don't have enough grammar expertise to explain what's happening but I like it!

And my absolute favourite:

No, Anthony. You're wrong. It totally did signify!

It signified for Daphne + Simon and will signify for Colin + Penelope. Be ready to eat your words in Season 3.

WOII Week 4 | Semiotics

Learning more about semiotics, where we take a look at how we perceive certain images or signages while decoding the message or intention behind it. Signifiers were also being used in our contextual analysis as part of the exercise when we are decoding an advertisement. 

Bringing semiotics into my photography assignments project 3 - A thousand words, where it challenges me to explore the language of photography and its capacity to communicate through the lens of semiotics. For this assignment, I chose an article which tried to convey the message on how climate change impacted the world, making temperature deadlier and food less reliable.

At first I was clueless as to how I can create visual storytelling images, so I began to look into images from www.worldwildlife.org, which talks about climate change and started to decode it using signifiers and what they are trying to signify. 

One of my favourite photos that I chance upon will be a campaign titled “Lungs” with a tagline: “Before it’s too late”, which was published in France, April 2008 by agency TBWA for WWF.

From the image we can see that the signifier being the lung shaped forest with part of the right side being burned down. This can signify that if the forest continues to be burned down or reduced, the aftereffect will also impact heavily on us too.

Thus, it helps to convey the message on the importance of us saving the tree, which opens up many ideas and inspiration for my upcoming photography submission.

WOII: Week 4 - Semiotics

During Week 4, I worked with two of my classmates to analyse an advertisement both formally and contextually. We chose to examine the KFC FCK ad launched in the UK in 2019, which was created to address a crisis when KFC ran out of chicken. The ad not only responded to the crisis but also showcased KFC's ability to handle the situation with humour and confidence. By combining an apology, wit, and iconic branding, the ad became a memorable moment in advertising.

This week of Semiotics taught me to understand how people interpret visuals in design. It teaches me me how to pick the right elements and shapes for my work so that people can understand them.

One instance which I used semiotics is the creation of my poster for my studio project. I broke down my designer by understanding their message through their works, paid attention to the elements they use commonly in their designs and finding out how their works connect with their works. This helped me create a design I was happy with and made me realize how important it is to understand the message behind the visuals.

Because of this, I decided to decode some of playstations ads in the early 2000s.

In both ads, elements of the PlayStation button symbol—triangle, circle, X, and square appear in the eyes and veins. This could suggest that gaming on PlayStation isn’t just an emotional experience but a physical one too. The raw intensity and focus shown in these visuals highlight how gaming grabs the player’s full attention, becoming a part of them. This deep connection helps shape the experience, making it something that truly immerses the player. Both ads were part of PlayStation's strategy to connect with players on a personal level and shapes their experience with gaming. References:

i have been trying to figure out why the whole 'fae god' and katniss everdeen things with kendrick lamar on here were bothering me, and i think i finally put it into words.

most posts like that are probably coming from well-meaning white people (i am also partially a White People, to be clear), who otherwise dont really listen to rap. they cannot find a way to 'relate' to this black man who sings largely about issues that affect the black community– and rather than try and meet him where he is, they have to fit him into these little tumblr cultural boxes before he can be 'palatable' to them.

they have to shave off the rougher/more abrasive aspects of his work and activism because it makes them uncomfortable, that way they can pigeonhole him into something that allows them to enjoy his work without the critical analysis that MUST come with it

he is not your fae god, he is not a YA protagonist, he is not a little gremlin or a cinnamon roll or a blorbo. He is a human being with opinions and beliefs that deeply permeate his work, and to ignore that truth is to ignore the entire point. PLEASE try to engage with artists' work outside of the lens of tumblr fandom, and i mean that as nicely as possible. you are doing YOURSELF a disservice
