The non-material social new Internet model of digitization, virtualization, and dematerialization has changed every aspect of people’s spiritual and material life. The way people accept the mass of information is constantly updated with the advent of the information age. By Info graphic, such a new visual manifestation, all–round display is achieved in the way of information systematization, tabulation, regularization, and explication.Infographic design can be ordered, ruled, visualized to do the large complex data processing, making it easy to understand, share resources, and develop ideas and secondary analysis. Language, images, and symbols of some image elements, which are intuitively in line with people’s sense judgment, are used to process the complex unintelligible information more efficiently. Another advantage this design can be achieved is, it also helps to display intuitively for those else easily overlooked invisible data because it can reflect any data in the mode of information visualization, even to show a variety of contents with complex information in a more comprehensive view. In the era of "information explosion" currently,after information elements’ collection, collation, processing, transmission, at last first-hand information is gained and applied in practice as an information research method of new scientific idea under the guidance of systems theory, cybernetics, and information theory,which will informationize system function, as well as lead people come to understand the importance of regularity, and promote them to use it. With a full research on Infographic in the aspects of dissemination, expression, and development trends etc., there comes into a summary that it still can disseminate accurate and effective information completely, clearly and intuitively in such a non-material social background, and then extend to explore the development space in the emphasized visual experience of non-material information design and the possibilities of exploration for its future direction of development.This paper focuses on the concept of infographics, analysis of cases and cognitive rules and also puts forward this theory subject, according to the non-material social information dissemination research needs. It also objectively and comprehensively collects and analyzes lots of graphic information, semiotics, big data, new media experiment, interactive visualization, symbol constitution, symbolisms, as well as a large number of associated works,paper documents, famous interviews, case studies at home and overseas by famous scholars and practitioners, through directivity collating studies, classification analysis and design applications for the relevant papers in Chinese and English, books, pictures, etc. |
