Artistic Information
Deductions and conclusions, along with all other types of "invented" information, are
considered artistic. The defining characteristic of artistic information is that it only
exists because you exist and created it; it's your invention. Examples of artistic
information include:
Conclusions
Deductions
Opinions
Inferences
Anytime someone states an inference the information is artistic. More often than not,
artistic information occurs as a result of "interpreting" inartistic information. This
carries important structural ramifications when considering effective
communication.
Quick Tip
Rhetoric comes into play when considering the various
approaches to artistic information. Rhetoric refers to a person's
ability to pick out the correct means of persuasion and then
use those means effectively. Keep this in mind as we progress.
We will be discussing this in more detail soon.
