What does 'distinctively visual' mean?
As you move through this unit, it's important that you understand how images and visuals can influence a person's response to a text. Composers often deliberately use a range of techniques and ideas to help shape our perceptions of others and our world.
Ask yourself:
* How do the elements in a text capture, involve or engage the audience? How do they make us feel?
* How does 'everything' in a text (images, language, structure, techniques) come together to form and influence our response?
* What might the composer be trying to teach us about relationships between people and the world?
