Drawing on the work of Harun Farocki and his concept of the operative image, this project investigates the transition from human to posthuman practices of comparing in 20th and 21st -century digital visual culture. Here, the central research topic focuses on the ways in which the image-scientific concept of comparative seeing are also subject to new formation under the conditions of partially algorithmically determined practices of image search, image distribution, image processing and image use.
