This book makes a case for images not as static representations, but as active practices.

Hyper-Imaging: New Languages for Art, Media and Communication describes a condition in which images are processes and no longer end points--relays of action instead of representations. This, in turn, redefines curating as a form of active mediation between human attention and the invisible systems shaping it. Throughout the book, Alfredo Cramerotti weaves theoretical perspectives with case studies drawn from his curatorial experience and deeply engages with artists and thinkers whose work interrogates these shifting dynamics.

This is a book about how images function: how they move, mutate, and coauthor meaning with machines, publics, and institutions. The goal is to equip curators, artists, scholars, and readers to better navigate this terrain: to engage critically, act creatively, and think infrastructurally. In the age of hyper-imaging, what is seeing is not the point; it is the system of seeing that must be curated.
