Description
Operational Images From the Visual to the Invisual explores how data technologies continue to shape our understanding of images beyond representation. Media theorist Jussi Parikka examines the expanding field of machine vision, tracing its development and application across various fields and historical epochs.
The book delves into the many roles of operational images as technologies of analysis, capture, measurement, diagramming, laboring, learning, identification, tracking, and destruction. By examining case studies where imagery and data intersect, Parikka provides unprecedented insight into posthuman visuality.
This comprehensive guide to a key concept in contemporary art, design, and media theory sheds light on the implications of machine vision and its impact on our understanding of images and their role in shaping our world.
