ResumoWhether overtly or not, all visual culture plumbs the complex and profound intersections among visuality, embodiment, and the logics of mechanical, industrial, or cybernetic systems. By making and interpreting visual culture, visual theorists (artists, art critics, and art historians) explore aspects of the human body/mind complex as a “complicated machine” capable of extension into the world through vision (per Julien Offray de la Mettrie in his 1748 book L'homme machine).
