Why should we be conscious of the choice of visual stories?
n We interpret things significantly faster with vision than with other senses.
n We interpret the stories through our own cultural background and visual stories might be misunderstood.
n We should highlight the zooming in & out effects to underline that what we show is just a piece of the much more complex whole.
n We tend to simplify things and that can lead to stereotyping.
