Colour as a visual signifier in screen typography: "Less means more" KU Leuven
This article makes a (programmatic) plea for constraints in the use of colour in electronic writing. ‘Spontaneous’, ‘free’, ‘unconstrained’ use of colour, it is argued, impoverishes both the creative and the communicative aspects of typographic design in digital environments, whereas constrained or rule-governed design can prove a powerful strategy in enhancing creativity and communication. A special plea is made for minimalism, which can be ...

Four Ways of Not Saying Something in Digital Kinshasa. Or, On the Substance of Shadow Conversations KU Leuven

While this seems to be a purely theoretical question, its practical implications are wide and concern whether such a thing as a ‘digital university’ is ...

On differences that make the difference : findings of a multi-methodological research project on monolingual film remakes in small film industries : the case of Flanders and the Netherlands Ghent University
Since the turn of the millennium, the Low Countries have witnessed the rise of a remarkable trend: Dutch films are being remade in Flanders (the Dutch-speaking, northern region of Belgium) and vice versa. Considering that both regions share one language (with minor differences in accent and vocabulary), this phenomenon appears to be exceptional. This paper presents the results of a four-year research project, investigating the phenomenon’s ...
