With this model we paradoxically witness the increasing prominence\nof textual mechanisms, at times when new interfaces are becoming more and more\nvisual.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The second model is characterised by a new approach to the photographic image encapsulating essential inherent properties of the photographed subject. By this model, the image, with the use of generative algorithms, computer vision and artificial intelligence technologies, can be perceived as \u2018the virtual\u2019 which is conceived in Deleuzian terms as the \u2018more real\u2019. The photographic image in this respect, as a post-digital image, can be interpreted through biological concepts, returning the notion of \u2018presence\u2019 to the photographic act.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Digital technologies have transformed the photographic medium from being representational to performative.
