I did my best to
understand the main idea that Gunther kress and Wysocki try to explain what
mode and multimodality is. Through the videos and article provided by Kress and
Wysocki I have learn the concept of modes. Tension
between Kress and Wysocki’s view of multimodality is about space and time they
both treat space and time differently. Which is a
means to relay certain type of messages through different ways. Through the
different way we learn the term multimodality which is presenting your message
to a distinct audience.
So In in a sense Modes
are ways in which one can communicate their message, such as their target
audience, tone of voice, and age group.
They define Multimodality as a collection of modes and how they are
presenting their distinct message. So for an example if a journalist was
presenting their interview of a specific star player. He cannot hand in his one
on one interview to his editor with his handwritten work. The chicken scratch
is unpresentable and unprofessional. All in all I tried my best to explain what
the two guys were trying to get across. I know that they differed upon some
things but came together to agree on certain definitions.
