Making Sense of Meaning-Making: Applying the Predictive Processing Framework to Art Photography
This talk examines how meaning attribution and aesthetic value transcend the purely visible information in art photography, despite its strong resemblance to its referents. Using three case studies—Eadweard Muybridge's Animal Locomotion (1879), Thomas Ruff's Porträts (1981–1991/1998–2001) and Wolfgang Tillmans' LED Flicker (2018)—I develop an argument that meaning does not coincide with indexical transparency or mimetic resemblance, but arises dynamically through inferential processes on the part of the viewer.
