mental images-what it "feels" like?
it is based on the experiences, of the objects, views, people, textures, etc... and it won't directly present onto our sense organs. that feeling or we say the mental images are more like an impression only exists in our brain.

is trying to follow it into my conscious mind. But its struggles are too far off, too confused and chaotic; scarcely can I perceive the neutral glow into which the elusive whirling medley of stirred-up colours is fused, and I cannot distinguish its form, cannot invite it, as the one possible interpreter, to translate for me the evidence of its contemporary, its inseparable paramour, the taste, cannot ask it to inform me what special circumstance is in question, from what period in my past life.

a relationship between humans & technology.

techno-humanism envisions a world where technology is so highly integrated into society that it becomes part of our greater intelligence and enables us to live longer.

an image, in my eyes, is a medium to convert 3D visual scene into 2D visual presentation.

which also drives to the concept about objective and subjective. objectivity is literally the reality, the nature, the material world which is completely separated from anthropic definitions, or human ideology. and once an authentic view is captured and turned into a plane presentation, it suddenly transformed into subjectivity, and absolutely the action we capture it is also a subjective intension, where we are standing at, which angle we choose, and what elements we want to add or neglect, all of these intensions are come from deep consciousness based on our will. so the image, as a representation of a view, is definitely subjective. and there is no complete objectivity in the field of photography, no need to say we are in an era when full of digital alternations.

to some extends, there is also absolutely no true truth, the objective point of view in the human world.
