How should we understand the experience of encountering and
interpreting images? What are their roles in science and medicine?
How do they shape everyday life? Postphenomenology and Imaging: How
to Read Technology brings together scholars from multiple
disciplines to investigate these questions. The contributors make
use of the "postphenomenological" philosophical perspective,
applying its distinctive ideas to the study of how images are
experienced. These essays offer both philosophical analysis of our
conception of images and empirical studies of imaging practice. The
contributors analyze concrete examples from a variety of fields of
science and medicine, including radiology, neuroscience, cytology,
physics, remote sensing, and space science. They also include
examples of imaging in everyday life, from smartphone apps to
animated GIFs. Edited by Samantha J. Fried and Robert Rosenberger,
this collection includes an extensive "primer" chapter introducing
and expanding the postphenomenological account of imaging, as well
as a set of short pieces by "critical respondents": prominent
scholars who may not self-identify as doing postphenomenology but
whose adjacent work is illuminating.
