Project leader Martin Engebretsen went on a study tour to Chicago, Columbia (Missouri) and San Diego in September, meeting experts in the fields of journalism and visual studies and presenting the perspectives and goals of INDVIL at several occasions. One of the highlights of the trip was an inspiring meeting with the highly acknowledged physicist and social semiotician Jay Lemke in his hometown San Diego.
