Sociologists have identified Generation Z as a group of people born after 1996 who
do not know a world without digital devices and virtual communication platforms.
Equipped with phones, they document their lives on an ongoing basis, taking
photos and sharing them on social networking sites. Today, Generation Z is largely
made up of students who divide their time between the real world and the reality
of electronic media.
The paper is intended to present the results of an experiment conducted with
second-year undergraduate students of the Faculty of Design at the Academy of
Fine Arts in Krakow, in the winter semester of the academic year 2021/2022, as part
of the colour fundamentals course. The aim was to find out to what extent colours
have a semantic value for them, used in interpersonal communication, and how
the visual message is complemented by the verbal message. For 2 weeks, students
were assigned the task of looking for the particular primary colour - red, yellow,
blue or green - in their surroundings. They documented the examples they found
by taking photos with a smartphone or camera and then posted them on a
specially prepared profile on Instagram, complementing them with hashtags of
their choice. Within each colour, a set of hashtags was created and those that were
repeated at least three times were used to create basic categories of meaning
attributed to the analysed colours.
