Study Group on The Language of Color (LC) Chair: Jin-Sook Lee, js_lee@cnu.ac.kr Co-chair: Paul Green-Armytage, p.green-armytage@curtin.edu.au Various authors have been developing the point of view of
color as a language, as shown in the papers presented at various AIC meetings
and congresses. By considering the increasing modern interest for color
communication and color language, it might be worthwhile to focus the
attention of the AIC community on the basic facts of the language of color.
Fields such as linguistics, semiotics and cognitive science, and topics such
as color naming and categorization, colored synaesthesia, semantic studies on
color, color grammar and syntax, are key to this study group. |
