Oversized Hardcover. Condition: Good. How much visual information is necessary for image recognition? A rather small quantity of data will go a long way for the brain and the computer, both of which take shortcuts for the sake of speedy comprehension. In this series, German photographer Thomas Ruff exploits this imprecision in digital technology, locating online jpegs, and enlarging them until the pixels emerge in a chessboard pattern of near abstraction. A closer look reveals that, in addition to the degeneration of the image into a digital grid, the color and brightness generated by the algorithms of the compression also become visible. Illus., 65 color. 132p.
