"Numa sociedade que procura a sua identidade numa entrega cada vez mais obsessiva ao paradigma comunicacional, o itinerário que traçamos é o de responder o melhor que pudermos à inquietação de sabermos o que é que se passa hoje entre nós, nas conversas diárias, nos gestos da convivialidade, na projecção colectiva de espaços, imagens e figuras, nas formas de vestir, ornamentar e modelar os corpos, nas narrativas míticas que os media não se cansam de ampliar, nas interacções formais e informais dos contextos organizacionais, na multiplicidade dos entrançados de redes de informação movidas pela electrónica e pela informática, enfim, nas sinalizações das ruas, casas, praças e jardins.(…) " Moisés de Lemos Martins (Introductory note Journal 'Comunicação e Sociedade' 1)

IDJ is a platform for discussing and improving the design, usability, and overall effectiveness of ‘content put into form’—of verbal and visual messages shaped to meet the needs of particular audiences. IDJ offers a forum for sharing ideas about the verbal, visual, and typographic design of print and online documents, multimedia presentations, illustrations, signage, interfaces, maps, quantitative displays, websites, and new media. IDJ brings together ways of thinking about creating effective communications for use in contexts such as workplaces, hospitals, airports, banks, schools, or government agencies. On the one hand, IDJ explores the design of information, with a focus on writing, the visual design, structure, format, and style of communications. On the other hand, IDJ seeks to better understand the ways that people understand, interpret, and use communications, with a focus on audiences, cultural differences, readers’ expectations, and differences between populations such as teenagers, elderly or the blind."

"Visible Language is concerned with research and ideas that help define the unique role and properties of written language. A basic premise of the journal is that writing/reading form an autonomous system of language expression which must be defined and developed on its own terms. To this must be added research and ideas that help define the presentation of information within the digital arena. The shift from page to screen is comparable in its significance to the shift from manuscript to print. Developing the knowledge base and conventions for this new media will take time and challenge our ability to move beyond the book and into more fluid and relational systems of presentation."

Beauty Matters! Usability and Aesthetics
"Usability is an approved quality when designing interactive products. Another factor becomes more and more important: the hedonic quality, which includes the aesthetic of a product.
The long-time experiences in user-friendly design convinced the initiators of Beauty matters that the combination of usability and aesthetics ensures the success of a product.
Usability alone ist not enough. Most people associate the aesthetics of a product with its beauty. The beauty is also decisive whether a product represents a special value for us.
The initiative Beauty matters stimulates the discussion about usability and aesthetics. Is beauty only in the eye of the beholder or can it be measured objectively? Is it possible to systematically design beauty? What effects does beauty have on the users? These questions will be examined and discussed by the initiators in events and publications, e.g. in a special issue of the magazine i-com."
