With \u003cem\u003eDepth Effects\u003c\/em\u003e, she traces A.I.-enabled techniques of computational imaging back to spatial strategies of early photography, analysing everyday smartphone apps by way of almost-forgotten media forms.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eDrawing on the work of Maurice Merleau-Ponty, Belisle explores depth both as a problem of visual representation (how can flat images depict a voluminous world?) and as a philosophical paradox (how do things cohere beyond the limits of our view?).\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n\u003cp\u003eShe explains how today's depth effects continue colonialist ambitions toward totalising ways of seeing. But she also shows how artists deploy dimensionality to articulate what remains invisible and irreducible.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Unknown","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47470406500588,"sku":"9780520393868","price":56.99,"currency_code":"NZD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0705\/7784\/8556\/files\/9780520393868-depth-effects.jpg?v=1775218609","url":"https:\/\/bookhero.co.nz\/products\/depth-effects-by-brooke-belisle-9780520393868","provider":"Book Hero","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
