10. Argument
• The three modes of appeal (logos,ethos,pathos)fluctuate
during the UX
• Rhetorical operations (addition,subtraction,inversion,
substitution) provide a vocabulary to describe the
adjustments of an interface from one platform to another

during the UX
• Rhetorical operations (addition,subtraction,inversion,

adjustments of an interface from one platform to another
• Rhetorical figures (tropes and schemes) provide a
vocabulary to describe both interface and interactions

What is our beta version about?
31. 1.The UI/UX rhetorical handbook would be used as
a framework to engage designers in discussion
and reflection upon possible meanings conveyed
by the interface composition as the user interacts
with the software
‣Denotation
‣Connotation
32. 2.The UI/UX rhetorical handbook offers a vocabulary
for UI/UX designers to analyze,conceptualize,and
critique interfaces
‣To go“beyond”the figures of metaphor and metonymy

‣To go“beyond”the figures of metaphor and metonymy
‣To move away from the skeuomorphic“origin” of interfaces

40. Argument
• Software could be regarded as a visual(interactive)
enthymeme,the form of the rhetorical argument
• “Gaza Everywhere”illustrates a case of application
software working as enthymeme
• The paper suggests the use of rhetoric as a generative tool
to be part of HCI/UX design pedagogy
55. •Gaza Everywhere's intent is not oriented to provide a
territorial truth
•Each user has a different awareness of the conflict in
the Gaza Strip,which affects the perception of the
application's intent
56. •Gaza Everywhere's intent is not oriented to provide a
territorial truth
•Each user has a different awareness of the conflict in
the Gaza Strip,which affects the perception of the
application's intent
•Not only the interactive map,but the whole user
interface (interactive map,stats,information design,
and Twitter embedded timeline) functions to support
the detected or interpreted claim
58. •Unlike other traditional forms of visual enthymeme,
Gaza Everywhere allows the user to play with the
composition at will
59. •Unlike other traditional forms of visual enthymeme,
Gaza Everywhere allows the user to play with the
composition at will
•Interaction and experiential knowledge help the user
to fill in the unstated premise
60. •Unlike other traditional forms of visual enthymeme,
Gaza Everywhere allows the user to play with the
composition at will
•Interaction and experiential knowledge help the user
to fill in the unstated premise
•The user might revisit the detected or interpreted
claim,which makes the rhetorical/persuasive effect of
Gaza Everywhere evolve with the user
