A chapter in The Visual Language of Technique, 2015, pp 5-12 from Springer

Abstract: Abstract Among the fathers of Italian television, the Italian science journalist and writer, Piero Angela is also considered to be a public educator in the fields of science and technique, especially due to the popularity of Quark and Superquark, his most famous television programmes. In both of them the role of the image, intended as a system of figures, movies and animations, is always crucial and dominant, not only to explain physical phenomena, but also to draw ideas and abstract issues. The interview has been video recorded on June 24th, 2013 in his home, in Rome. According to the purposes of the seminar, the focus was on the role of visual language in education. The following pages include a transcript of this conversation.
