[Commlist] Call for participants: Workshop: Generic Visuals, Journalism, and Misinformation

**Generic Visuals, Journalism, and Misinformation**

Workshop Description

Generic visuals are images which have standardized formats and 
appearances, which perform particular design functions, and which 
circulate with increasing frequency in the news media. This workshop 
focuses on the role that generic visuals play in the production and 
reception of news. How do these aesthetic forms assemble publics and 
influence the way people think about political and personal issues? What 
is the relationship between generic visuals and misinformation? Join the 
workshop “Generic Visuals, Journalism, and Misinformation” at The 
Foundry, the London offices of Full Fact. The Generic Visuals in the 
News project team and Full Fact educators will be there to answer these 
questions, talk about project findings, and more during this 
participatory / interactive series of workshops. The workshop will close 
with the launch of an exhibition from the Generic Visuals in the News 
project in the atrium of The Foundry.

**Working journalists, media educators, and PhD students are encouraged 
to apply.**

Space is limited, so please reach out to (A.L.Ridley /at/ leeds.ac.uk) 
if you are interested in joining us.
