ABOUT THE KEYNOTE
VISUAL LITERACY AND VISUAL DETOX FOR LEADERS
We live in a visual world. In fact, in the old days, many Fleet Street journalists feared that pictures would replace words.
That day has happened – every day we consume 10,000 visuals. And this number, while it may already be frightening, is due to increase over the coming 10 years. We need to make sure that images don’t plant ideas we’re not aware of.
Yet, we still live in the age of ignorance when it comes to visuals. We have never been taught visual education or visual literacy at school, nor have we ever trained our eyes to challenge what we see daily.
We trust too much the visuals around us and, with the rise of Artificial Intelligence (AI) imagery and deepfakes, visual misinformation is becoming a real threat to our society. I believe we urgently need to make visual literacy a mainstream priority.
