Propositional density, along with Gestalt I find something curiously McLuhanesque about it. While reasearching an article on the use of propositional density, Michal Engelman, Emily M. Agree, Lucy A. Meoni, and Michael J. Klag Propositional Density and Cognitive Function in Later Life: Findings From the Precursors Study The Journals of Gerontology Series B: Psychological Sciences and Social Sciences Advance Access published on September 13, 2010 J GERONTOL B PSYCHOL SCI SOC SCI 2010 65B: 706–711; doi:10.1093/geronb/gbq064 [Abstract] [Full Text] [PDF] [Supplementary Data], I came across your site and fear I might become a quick addict to it. How many years have I seen the FedEx logo and never really seen it? Now I think that I might be surrounded by icebergs. You also taught me even greater appreciation for good design.

Interesting concept!

Just last week I had posted a chart from The Economist which has a powerful image along with the data on my blog — http://www.visualquest.in/2010/06/et-tu-brute-you-too-brutus.html.

The chart itself is quite eloquent — the spread in the bond rates representing the current difficult Greek situation. The image is evocative.

Did the chartist intend to invoke associations and deep propositions ? If the chart had no images, my reaction would have been that Greece is in deep trouble — the image, to my mind, adds a tragic element to the chart. Was that his intention ? It did get more emotions involved — but to achieve what?

What are the deep proposition in the comparative chart in my post? The data is quite eloquent again — international trade is still quite low.

it will be engrossing to track the improvement in our understanding of the evocative /associative element of visual design!!
