The Art of Computer Designing
- a book by Osamu Sato published in 1993 -
The computer is a magic box. Many graphic images are hidden inside it. […] This is an everyday guide to computer illustrating, a
collection of design ideas and a compendium of Mr. Sato’s own computer
art works. […] Just looking at the myriad
manifestations of form is a joy, but for those who will use it to begin
creating their own shapes this book offers far, far greater pleasure.

The Concept of Non-Photography:
Non-photography, theorized by François Laruelle, is about devorcing all context from a photgraph. There is no concept of a subject, photographer, composition, pretext, or context. It exsists in a void as a sort of non-thing, as if there was no sentient being able to percive and analize it. It exsist’s merely as an aeasthetic, but not even really as an aesthetic because that is a philosophy in itself.
He states that the photograph is not a picture of reality or even a copy or abstraction. It is a fiction that is “wholly real but in its own mode”- the fictional realm. The photograph is unique unto itself, an unlimited opening into the world occasioned by lights and shadows in time, but is in no way constrained by either the experiential universe or the theoretical and art historical preconditions set up for it.”
