| Unimaginable possibilities which we couldn`t even dream of in the past are introduced due to the digitalization of information. For past 10 years we have seen a rapid growth of the interactive mass. For example, many different mediums such as computer games, computer operation system run by window, CD-ROM, DVD and web sites have turned into commonplace names. But a slight problem occurs when the computer related technology of turning optical information mediums such as letters, pictures, images and sounds into digital signals, controlling and recording them progress. How can we possibly search for the information we need efficiently among all the overwhelming information on a single screen? In other words, we are facing the problem of how to design the single screen which allows us to share the information with the machine, computer and how to plan the overall structure of the information system according to our way of recognition. Interactive mediums have turned into a significant part of our communication system when the existing form of information converted from analog to digital. And as a result the rapid growth of the amount of information and the complication in connecting different pages are causing much inconvenience and chaos to searchers when they look for selective information and try to use it efficiently. In this study I have come to realize the importance of the roles of designers and the organic relation between optical elements considering all the problems written above. The designers who produce double-direction mediums should at least understand clearly the difference between the contemporary printed mediums and the double-direction mediums. And base on this understanding the designing work has to be done considering the characteristics of different mediums and the positions of users. Besides that, the human recognition, its process and emotional engineering should be considered important due to the fact that searchers are participating in the processes of the mediums. |
