Mogućnosti i granice multimedija kao pojmovnog jezika
Possibilities and Limits of Multimedia as a Conceptual Language

Summary/Abstract: The rationalism understands an act of cognition as a conceptual understanding of things, that is, as the power with which human as a conscious being (mens) forms the idea of a thing in a concept. Therefore, conceptual understanding represents an adequate mode in knowing the essence of a thing. It is important to emphasize that the concept is a product of an act of thinking, while the idea as a concept is not reducible to the image (imago) nor to the word (verbum). In light of recognized openness of the concept to the medium, the focus of the research are the possibilities of virtual reality (VR) and integration of multimedia for the purpose of effective expression of the essence of things. Can using a multimedia platform avoid the confusion of connotations that sensory stimuli actually evoke? In its practical application, the research relies on examples of integration and use of VR media and devices in shipbuilding.
