💀🔪⚰🔫 – me and my friend usually like to threaten each other and point weapons at each other, for legal reasons that is a joke.
👁 – It looks really freaky and I like to make weird faces just for humors.
🥺 💓– When I find something adorable or I feel humbled by being complimented etc , tells the other person I feel appreciative.
🥵😔 – I often use these as sarcasm , mainly where I am ‘’sad’’ or ‘’yikes’’
🤩✨- I like to use these to emphasize a sentence or show excitement My emojis broad from one side of spectrum to the other where I feel really ‘threateny’ to very loved and happy, there doesn’t seem to be a in between.
I think my emojis contain a lot of sarcasm where sarcasm wasn't really intended for most of these emojis; like the first row and the fourth row. I like to jokingly threaten my friends because all of us thinks its funny, I wouldn't use them in a serious conversation and often stick to using them on people that understand my humor. Usually when im speaking to someone more formally, I'd use the :^) emoji, which isn't really the emoticon on the apple keyboard, but its inspired from the OG emojis that Nokia had and I like to use it more rather than the typical Emojis that EVERYONE uses.
I think my emojis clearly represent the type of person I am on the outside; I like to make people laugh and make them feel comfortable in a conversation, but I also like to make people feel appreciated and loved because as someone who's been using text for a long time, I can understand and see how some people grow uncomfortable if someone doesn't use emojis because it feels like they're being serious or angry all the time. I also feel like emojis have impacted the texting world so much, I know that if someone regularly uses emojis and decides not to use them one day, that something is wrong and they do not want to tell you.
SEMIOTICS – ROLAND BARTHES
THE STUDY OF signs and symbols
Rs of meanings; but it is visual literacy which posses the potential to cross language barriers and truly communicate universal language. It’s a challenge to create a basic visual global language because people are still attached to verbal words. (All depends on cultures too)
ISOTYPE- origins are designed to educate. Method for assembling, configuring and sharing information and statistics using images. Its designer described it as a language like technique, but its been characterized through graphic elements. Words divide but images unite .
Back in 1920’s – 1930’s words were power. Words were once on the 12 pillars of society; alphabet. ISOTYPES were created to educate ALL despite being able not being able to teach them verbally. FIRST ever examples of what we use in todays day to day life (road signs etc)

Government did not like these men ^ because they were telling people the truth. The economic impact of war is clashing on the economy made a lot of people unemployed , the government lied to them saying the war will make them prosper instead, it led them to no jobs and devastation. The visual graph used taught people globally about economics, politics and culture.
TASK- visual abstract concept of unemployment.
Created system of 4,000 different pictograms which directly addressed the everyday society.- it was used for educational purposes. It was made against capitalist system because the creator was against it. (There is a beauty in the simplicity of the pictograms) – these are part of our day to day culture.
Pictograms are used to visualize abstract concepts.
Visual abstract concept of 'APPLE' and 'EDUCATION'
