• Resumen

  • In prehistoric times, Ancient Greece, the Middle Ages and the Renaissance, images entertained a fluctuating relationship with the visible and the invisible, cloaking them with different meanings (from sacred truths to rational ones). By reattributing the values of the seen and the unseen, computerised representations profoundly transform the symbolic management of images. Often of a hyper-realistic nature that refers to other types of automatic figuration (photography, cinema, television), these digit alised images have a different relationship with the invisible. Their function is not to represent reality but to simulate it, by programming its underlying laws.
