Abstract
Discovering information is one of the great challenges of our time. Description tasks are among the most time consuming activities in our society and we leave behind huge swathes of documents, which we will never describe or address due to lack of tools and time. At the same time humankind has produced and will continue producing unimaginable quantities of organised information through different media (photographs, books, music, television, radio, internet) based on the hypothesis that there is a potential viewer, listener, reader or navigator that will make sense of it through their perception.
