Description
(Text)
Anyone talking about pictures by necessity refersto those using pictures. It is therefore essentiallythe competence of using pictures that they mustconsider. Such a competence is not a common abilityeven among higher developed mammals, atleast as far as we know today. This fact raises thequestion yet unanswered whether and to what extentthat ability has to be conceived of as a strictlyanthropological one. In an interdisciplinary approach,the first international conference of theSociety for Interdisciplinary Image Science (GiB)titled Origins of Pictures has taken a closer look atthe role of pictures for the conditio humana.The goals pursued at the conference were first topresent empirical findings of the origins of pictureuses. In particular, research in paleo-anthropology,archeology, cultural anthropology, and developmentalpsychology has been considered. Furthermore,those findings have been related to philosophicalconsiderations concerning the conditionsof the conceptual formation of picture competence.
