  • Discrete Encoding Essay by Khim ONG
    Artists Bea CAMACHO • Donna ONG • Grace TAN • Savanhdary VONGPOOTHORN Discrete Encoding Essay by Khim ONG __________________ ___________________________________________________________________________________ Essay Humans have pondered over questions of perception for as long as they were conscious of their ability to see and attempt to make intelligible their visual experience of the world. Thinkers have long argued over ideas of perceptual experiences, the relation between appearance and reality, how we could possibly gain knowledge of the real world as perceived through the senses, oscillating between analytical and empirical theories. It is the indeterminacy of the senses that problems in perception arise and continues to intrigue. How do we capture visual impressions that are fleeting, subjective, contingent on the conditions at the moment of perceiving, and translate them into knowledge about the world and ourselves? Computer vision, developed since the 1960s with the intention of automating the functions of the human visual system, may offer one illustration of how this is performed. A methodological process that involves developing theoretical and algorithmic systems to obtain visual understanding through acquiring, processing and analysing visual data, fields and shades of colour are analysed according to their spatial relation, scale-space, textual and through extraction of edges and lines. These encoded data simulate a visual field through which numerical, and other information can be obtained and serve as data source for further analysis and use, for instance, in related fields of artificial intelligence, information engineering, neurobiology, and so on. Such a scientific model of acquiring visual data opens up new understandings of how we see and the way we comprehend what we see, making them concrete, describable, and manipulatable.
