Media Language
Roland Barthes Theory - Semiotics is the study of signification. Symbols have different meanings. Images in media can be interpreted in many different ways by various consumers. The creator may mean something but whoever watches it may see it as something else - Pluralism. E.g. A rose can be seen as romantic but are also used by mobs on dead bodies.
