These are the lists of multimodal texts I found digging through my backpack today:
Me, Myself, and Why (A book) — L, V, S
Zebra print umbrella—V
Brochure on how to use light kits—L, V, S
Business card—L, S
Cupons—L, V, S
Water bottle—L, V, S
Calclear (pre-moistened lens towelettes)—L, V, S
Tissue with a basketball design on it and the word ‘basketball’ —L, V, S
A bracelet with the Israeli flag and logos of the Israel on Campus Coalition—L, V, S
5 React gum packet—L, V, S
None of my listed texts use all five modes of communication. However, a good example that uses the linguistic, visual, and spatial modes is the book I mentioned (image above). This book is effective because the title and the picture at the center of it enforce one another: the “why” in the text is conveyed through the question mark in the picture. And the physical arrangement of the picture and the title of the book is visually appealing and not cluttered al all. The book is different from my zebra print umbrella that only communicates a visual mode.
