Relato em quadrinhos da metadisciplina: narrativas semióticas

Abstract

Comics, as a design product, o er an fertile range of possibilities of configuration and communication. In this paper, this media appears in the di usion phase of Metadiscipline, a pedagogical approach with fundamentals of Design, Didactics and Semiotics. The application of the approach manifests through a discipline that is built while it is delivered, in creative and participative processes with students, assistants and researchers. The result is a collectively constructed knowledge, adaptable to the repertoires and experiences of the participants. To represent the Metadiscipline, the comics are chosen for their intrinsically flexible structure, with elements that can be revised and resignified throughout the narrative, like the approach itself. The fluidity of the spacetime in comics, of sequential and simultaneous aspect, and the imagetic and verbal juxtaposition support a story that is made while it is told. Aiming to explore this language in an ample way, the creative process described here appropriates the Semiotics of Charles Peirce (1839 - 1914) as organizational structure. Semiotics, as a methodologic-analytic process, investigates the way we read the reality via signs through a triadic principle: sensation, perception and interpretation. Initially used as fundament in the research, the peircean theory appears in the process to a rm the cohesion between the media (comics) and the content (Metadiscipline). Semiotics contemplates, therefore, a platform to be used in the construction of a comics report about Metadiscipline.
