This book builds a new understanding of the body and its relationship to images and technology, using a framework where novel writings of pragmatist somaesthetics and phenomenology meet new research on bodily reactions. Max Ryynänen gives an overview of the topic by collecting the existing information of our bodies gazing at visual culture and the philosophies supporting these phenomena, and examines the way the gaze and the body come together in our relationship to culture. Themes covered include somatic film; the body in artistic documentation of activist art; body parts (and their mutilation or surgeries) in contemporary art and film; robot cars and our visual relationship to them; the usefulness of Indian rasa philosophy in explaining digital culture; and an examination of Mario Perniola’s work about the idea that we, human beings, are increasingly experiencing ourselves to be simply "things." The book will be of interest to scholars working in art history, aesthetics, cultural philosophy, film studies, technology studies, media studies, cultural studies, and visual studies.
This book covers virtually all aspects of image formation in medical imaging, including systems based on ionizing radiation (x-rays, gamma rays) and non-ionizing techniques (ultrasound, optical, thermal, magnetic resonance, and magnetic particle imaging) alike. In addition, it discusses the development and application of computer-aided detection and diagnosis (CAD) systems in medical imaging. Given its coverage, the book provides both a forum and valuable resource for researchers involved in image formation, experimental methods, image performance, segmentation, pattern recognition, feature extraction, classifier design, machine learning / deep learning, radiomics, CAD workstation design, human–computer interaction, databases, and performance evaluation.
Technology companies claim to connect people through touchscreens, but by conflating physical contact with emotional sentiments, they displace the constructed aspects of devices and women and other oppressed individuals’ critiques of how such technologies function. Technology companies and device designers correlate touchscreens and online sites with physical contact and emotional sentiments, promising unmediated experiences in which the screen falls away in favor of visceral materiality and connections. While touchscreens are key elements of most people’s everyday lives, critical frameworks for understanding the embodied experiences of using them are wanting. In Touch Screen Theory, Mic...

In den Bildmedien religiöser Frauengemeinschaften der Frühen Neuzeit war das Herz von besonderer Bedeutung. Maria Schaller analysiert Porträts und bildtragende Schmuckstücke, die im 17. und 18. Jahrhundert in katholischen Nonnenklöstern und protestantischen Damenstiften entstanden sind und Vorstellungen wie die Einwohnung, das Einprägen oder die Einschreibung des Göttlichen in das menschliche Herz thematisieren. Untersucht werden Rückgriffe auf die Herzvisionen spätmittelalterlicher Mystiker*innen, aber auch bemerkenswerte Neusemantisierungen wie die Konstruktion der Genealogie einer „ewigen Herzenswunde“. Im Zentrum steht die Frage, inwiefern die präsentierten Körperbilder und Imaginationen des Herzens Aushandlungsprozesse im Spannungsfeld von Konfession, Stand und Geschlecht widerspiegeln. Grundlegender Beitrag zur Genderforschung und Körpergeschichte der Frühen Neuzeit Bilder des Herzens in verschiedenen christlichen Konfessionen
