This article employs Folkman and Lazarus’s Transactional Model of Stress and Coping utilizing the visual self-narrative methodology to explore participant experiences of isolation, uncertainty, and risk during the COVID-19 pandemic. Fifty-seven participants engaged in visual self-narrative and photo-elicitation workshops to understand coping during the pandemic and to examine implications of reflection on photographs. Findings from 878 photographs revealed that participants coped with COVID-19 and changed social environments more emotionally than behaviorally, likely because infection risk may feel out of one’s control. Interestingly, when participants reflected on their own visual self-narratives, emotional coping continued to be more salient; the majority of participants felt a sense of overwhelming thankfulness for children, family, self, and time to spend with each.

Scholars study how the visual and the verbal intersect in scientific texts that incorporate images, but rarely are artistic renderings considered central to scientific epistemologies. This article turns to neuroaesthetics to understand the productive role of art in scientific visual invention. As shown through the drawings of neuroscientist Santiago Ramón y Cajal, the neuroaesthetics of visual invention explain how art may offer scientists the epistemological resources needed to see around hegemonic paradigms in their disciplines.
学者们研究视觉和语言如何在包含图像的科学文本中相交,但很少将艺术渲染视为科学认识论的核心。本文转向神经美学来理解艺术在科学视觉发明中的生产作用。正如神经科学家Santiago Ramón y Cajal的图画所示,视觉发明的神经美学解释了艺术如何为科学家提供在其学科中看到霸权范式所需的认识论资源。

The first published image in a government report based on a sketch made within the Rocky Mountains appeared in 1843. This report is a visual description of how the author located the viewpoint for that 1842 field sketch with a horizontal error of less than three feet and a vertical error of less than four inches.

This article provides an understanding of the underlying themes and patterns in the photographic images of cultural heritage sites posted on Twitter immediately after the 2015 Nepal Earthquake. An analysis of 6,529 images available in the SMERP data set was carried out to identify and understand the main themes emerging from the discussion on Twitter regarding the damages to cultural heritage sites. Fewer than 10% of the tweets with images available in the data set have cultural heritage sites as the subject. Among them, six main themes emerged from the analysis presented. The dominant theme, with 67% of the heritage images posted, involves some kind of situational awareness where Twitter users aimed to communicate the state of heritage sites after the earthquake.
