This chapter presents a study of the perceptual processes that condition the parallel processing of visual data, and thus could become a design tool to manage the transfer of information. This allows the designers to analyze and consciously plan this process, taking into the account the perceptual mechanisms involved. The chapter combines knowledge from the fields of cognitive science, geometrical optics, graphic design, and, last but not least, it utilizes the author's experience in architecture gained from the study of transparency perception.

This last chapter discusses the need for interdisciplinary research and approaches for well-being. Therefore, it is very important to investigate the intersections of well-being with architecture, social sciences, medicine, as well as neuroscience. Recent well-being research shows that we have the amazing ability to reshape our brains, to change our affective mindsets, and to improve our well-being. On the other hand, it is necessary to understand cultural differences and its effects on well-being and to grasp the issue in accordance with the specific context. Therefore, the conclusion tries to understand how design and architecture can contribute to the way we build up well-being. Since interior space is one of the most important determinants of our everyday experiences, its role in well-being as a conscious construct needs to be the most important concern of spatial design.

Feminist film theory evaluates films by some concepts such as subject positions, narrative closures, and fetishism. This theory suggests that the catharsis of popular films is in the service of the male audience. However, many feminist films centered on women are also made, which are outside the mainstream cinema and reach a considerable amount of viewers. This study aims to evaluate Caramel (Nadine Labaki, 2007) by the concepts of feminist film theory. The film expresses a country dominated by taboos through these five women.

Well-being is related not only to physical health, but also to many other factors about our lives and living environments. It is a very ephemeral condition in relation to the complex system of interconnected components changing from culture to culture and person to person together with time and space. In this sense, design for well-being is an issue that requires intense research on subjective aspects. The chapter begins by discussing different conceptions of well-being and goes on by discussing what design can do for well-being. After discussing the spatial dimensions of well-being, the study focuses on the role of interior design in promoting well-being and underlines the importance of the concepts of flexibility, sense of place, and contact with nature.

The expanded concept of work of art that challenges the boundaries of aesthetic theory and directs the attention toward the artistic service as a flexible cognitive activity is useful in the field of politics. Today's societies are faced with the expanded concept of the political that is set at the intersection of politics-as-we-know-it (including the national state and the parliament) and the novel modes of the (post)political including the activities of civil society, international organizations, and the cultural. This chapter refers to the Slovenian literary nationalism as one of the key Slovenian ideological state apparatuses that is at play in today's Slovenian politics and is deeply affected by not-just-political agents from economy, religion, lifestyle, and culture. The criticism of literary nationalism is not directed towards the activity of writing and the literary world but towards institutions that form a literary-ideological, interpretative, and propaganda context of national literary production.

The aim of this chapter is to examine the history of storytelling. This brief history includes the concept of storytelling from myths to the digital era. In the first part of the chapter, the origins of storytelling in primitive communities and its development in later periods are examined. In the second part of the chapter, the development process of digital storytelling is explained. According to this, traditional storytelling has gained a new form called digital storytelling which started with a workshop in 1993 by Dana Atchley. One year later, the Center for Digital Storytelling (CDS) was established in Berkley, CA. The Center for Digital Storytelling has organized workshops and partnered with organizations around the world to hold projects on story facilitation, digital storytelling and other forms of digital media production and since 1993, it has helped more than 20,000 people to share their own stories. Though the digital storytelling movement started in North America, it has also spread in Europe, Australia, Asia, Africa and South America. The movement has found a place in the world of today.

This chapter aims to discuss the dialectic relationship between interior environments of heritage buildings and users and the importance of preserving interior elements as communicators of cultural significance. Today the conservation practice and reuse proposals focus on preserving the architectural envelope of buildings rather than interior aspects. Conversely, interiors need specific safeguard and care, not only due to their cultural significance but also because they are the part most closely connected to the real life of users. In the perspective of cultural conservation, existing buildings represent the continuity of cultural values from the past to the future, and at this point, interior architecture is crucial as it provides an authentic interaction between users and spaces conveying all these values. Therefore, the conservation of interior envelope and interior elements rises as a very important issue to be discussed, affecting the occupant's well-being in a very subjective and sometimes unconscious way (considering the cultural belonging).

The digital age is changing everything forever. Media is changing in many ways ranging from the way people screen it to the way it is operated as a business. Profitable mainstream media of yesterday is struggling to survive against disruptive innovation brought by new technologies and being challenged by giant technology companies such as Google and Facebook, which are forming a duopoly, especially in terms of digital advertising revenues. These conditions are forcing media managers to be more literate than ever. Although there is a definition for media literacy and business literacy, there is no definition for media business literacy yet. This study will try to make a definition of media business literacy, which should involve stakeholders, markets, products, customers, competitors, financial terminology, and financial statements. After this broad definition, the rest of the chapter will focus on the changing media industry structure providing an insight on some financial and numerical information that needs to be understood by everyone interested in media business.

The neutrality that is accepted among the journalism principles is very unlikely when it comes to the practice. Journalism, which started with writing, has become one of the fields that benefit from the technological possibilities to fulfill the objectivity and truth transfer criteria. The picture has been featured in the news transmission so that the photographer can see the actual use of the video later on and can testify to the story. Today, the latest development in the field of journalism of developing technology is the application of virtual reality. Virtual reality, a new application area in reporting yet, will bring many arguments. Ethical issues, reality formation, impartiality, a new visual experience are some of these discussion areas. In this study, it is aimed to investigate new discussion topics which will be brought to the field of journalism while discussing how and with what kind of news the virtual reality application which opens a new field in the journalism.
