  1. Invisible
    the dangerous allure of the unseen
    Author: Ball, Philip
    Published: 2014
    Publisher:  Bodley Head, London

    If you could be invisible, what would you do? The chances are that it would have something to do with power, wealth or sex. Perhaps all three. But there's no need to feel guilty. Impulses like these have always been at the heart of our fascination... more

    If you could be invisible, what would you do? The chances are that it would have something to do with power, wealth or sex. Perhaps all three. But there's no need to feel guilty. Impulses like these have always been at the heart of our fascination with invisibility: it points to realms beyond our senses, serves as a receptacle for fears and dreams, and hints at worlds where other rules apply. Invisibility is a mighty power and a terrible curse, a sexual promise, a spiritual condition. This is a history of humanity's turbulent relationship with the invisible. It takes on the myths and morals of Plato, the occult obsessions of the Middle Ages, the trickeries and illusions of stage magic, the auras and ethers of Victorian physics, military strategies to camouflage armies and ships and the discovery of invisibly small worlds. From the medieval to the cutting-edge, fairy tales to telecommunications, from beliefs about the supernatural to the discovery of dark energy, Philip Ball reveals the universe of the invisible

    "Vivid, surprising, and utterly timely, Akiko Busch's How to disappear explores the idea of invisibility in nature, art, and science, in search of a more joyful and peaceful way of living in today's increasingly surveilled and publicity-obsessed world In our increasingly networked and image-saturated lives, the notion of disappearing has never been both more enchanting and yet fanciful. Today, we are relentlessly encouraged, even conditioned, to reveal, share, and self-promote. The pressure to be public comes not just from our peers, but vast and pervasive technology companies, which want to profit from patterns in our behavior. A lifelong student and observer of the natural world, Busch sets out to explore her own uneasiness with this arrangement, and what she senses is a widespread desire for a less scrutinized way of life--for invisibility. Writing in rich painterly detail about her own life, her family, and some of the world's most exotic and remote places--from the Cayman Islands to Iceland--she savors the pleasures of being unseen. Discovering and dramatizing a wonderful range of ways of disappearing, from virtual reality goggles that trick the wearer into believing her body has disappeared and to the way Virginia Woolf's fictional Mrs. Dalloway feels a flickering of personhood as an older woman, Busch deliberates on subjects new and old with equal sensitivity and incisiveness. A unique and exhilarating accomplishment, How to disappear is a shimmering collage of poetry, cinema, memoir, myth, and much more, which overturns the dangerous modern assumption that somehow fame and visibility equate to success and happiness"-- The invisible friend -- Orlando's ring -- Across the natural world -- Invisiphilia -- Invisible ink -- At the identity spa -- The anonymity proposal -- Rereading Mrs. Dalloway -- The vanishing self -- The geography of invisibility -- With wonder

    "Is it possible for something or someone to be made invisible? This question, which has intrigued authors of science fiction for over a century, has become a headline-grabbing topic of scientific research. In this book, science writer and optical physicist Gregory J. Gbur traces the science of invisibility from its sci-fi origins in the nineteenth-century writings of authors such as H. G. Wells and Fitz James O'Brien to modern stealth technology, invisibility cloaks, and metamaterials. He explores the history of invisibility and its science and technology connections, including the discovery of the electromagnetic spectrum, the development of the atomic model, and quantum theory. He shows how invisibility has moved from fiction to reality, and he questions the hidden paths that lie ahead for researchers"--

    Aus neuzeitlicher Perspektive ist die Präsenz von Schrift an deren Sichtbarkeit und Lesbarkeit gekoppelt. Ist diese Vorannahme schon an sich fragwürdig, so ist sie für Schriftpraktiken vormoderner Zeiten, bei denen gerade das Verbergen und Verhüllen eine große Rolle spielten, kaum haltbar. Das Ziel des Bandes ist es, die Kategorie der "restringierten Schriftpräsenz" aus interdisziplinärer und transkultureller Perspektive kritisch zu hinterfragen From the perspective of early modernity, the presence of writing is linked to its visibility and legibility. This may be a questionable assumption, and it was especially problematic for writers in the premodern era, for whom concealment and veiling played such an important role. The aim of this book is to critically examine the category of the "restricted presence of writing," from an interdisciplinary and transcultural perspective

    If you could be invisible, what would you do? The chances are that it would have something to do with power, wealth or sex. Perhaps all three. But there's no need to feel guilty. Impulses like these have always been at the heart of our fascination with invisibility: it points to realms beyond our senses, serves as a receptacle for fears and dreams, and hints at worlds where other rules apply. Invisibility is a mighty power and a terrible curse, a sexual promise, a spiritual condition. This is a history of humanity's turbulent relationship with the invisible. It takes on the myths and morals of Plato, the occult obsessions of the Middle Ages, the trickeries and illusions of stage magic, the auras and ethers of Victorian physics, military strategies to camouflage armies and ships and the discovery of invisibly small worlds. From the medieval to the cutting-edge, fairy tales to telecommunications, from beliefs about the supernatural to the discovery of dark energy, Philip Ball reveals the universe of the invisible

    Why we disappear -- Occult forces -- Fear of obscurity -- Rays that bridge worlds -- Worlds without end -- All in the mind -- The people who can't be seen -- Vanishing point -- Bedazzled and confused -- Unseen at last? If offered the chance--by cloak, spell or superpower--to be invisible, who wouldn't want to give it a try? We are drawn to the idea of stealthy voyeurism and the ability to conceal our own acts, but as desirable as it may seem, invisibility is also dangerous. It is not just an optical phenomenon, but a condition full of ethical questions. As esteemed science writer Philip Ball reveals in this book, the story of invisibility is not so much a matter of how it might be achieved but of why we want it and what we would do with it

Was bedeutet Sichtbarkeit, betrachtet in ihrer je spezifischen Beziehung zu ihrem Gegenteil, der Unsichtbarkeit? Der vorliegende Band nimmt in neun Beiträgen diese verwickelte Relation auf dem Gebiet der drei maßgeblichen Diskurse – Wissenschaft, Literatur und Kunst – um 1800 in den Blick. Um 1800 werden die später grundlegenden und wirkmächtigen Ausarbeitungen des Gegensatzes von Sichtbarkeit und Unsichtbarkeit konzipiert, theoretisch ausformuliert oder praktisch umgesetzt. Die Einzeluntersuchungen nehmen ihren Ausgangspunkt von zwei logisch-fundamentalen Grundkonstellationen des Gegensatzpaars »sichtbar/unsichtbar«: Die eine fasst das Verhältnis als komplementär-inklusiv auf, die andere spitzt es auf einen kontradiktorisch-exklusiven Gegensatz zu

Writing in rich painterly detail about her own life, her family, and some of the world's most exotic and remote places--from the Cayman Islands to Iceland--she savors the pleasures of being unseen. Discovering and dramatizing a wonderful range of ways of disappearing, from virtual reality goggles that trick the wearer into believing her body has disappeared and to the way Virginia Woolf's fictional Mrs. Dalloway feels a flickering of personhood as an older woman, Busch deliberates on subjects new and old with equal sensitivity and incisiveness. A unique and exhilarating accomplishment, How to disappear is a shimmering collage of poetry, cinema, memoir, myth, and much more, which overturns the dangerous modern assumption that somehow fame and visibility equate to success and happiness"-- The invisible friend -- Orlando's ring -- Across the natural world -- Invisiphilia -- Invisible ink -- At the identity spa -- The anonymity proposal -- Rereading Mrs. Dalloway -- The vanishing self -- The geography of invisibility -- With wonder

    If you could be invisible, what would you do? The chances are that it would have something to do with power, wealth or sex. Perhaps all three. But there's no need to feel guilty. Impulses like these have always been at the heart of our fascination with invisibility: it points to realms beyond our senses, serves as a receptacle for fears and dreams, and hints at worlds where other rules apply. Invisibility is a mighty power and a terrible curse, a sexual promise, a spiritual condition. This is a history of humanity's turbulent relationship with the invisible. It takes on the myths and morals of Plato, the occult obsessions of the Middle Ages, the trickeries and illusions of stage magic, the auras and ethers of Victorian physics, military strategies to camouflage armies and ships and the discovery of invisibly small worlds. From the medieval to the cutting-edge, fairy tales to telecommunications, from beliefs about the supernatural to the discovery of dark energy, Philip Ball reveals the universe of the invisible

    Impossible de voir un Rembrandt sans croire en Dieu, disait Van Gogh. Innombrables sont les peintres qui se sont attachés à traduire le réel ou à conformer le monde à leur vision. Plus rares sont ceux qui ont réussi à traverser les apparences pour scruter la réalité invisible qui se cache derrière le visible, traquer la part d'éternité qui est dissimulée au coeur des choses les plus éphémères. Dans les essais rassemblés ici, Laurent Dandrieu nous montre comment Fra Angelico, Rembrandt, Vermeer, Le Greco, Champaigne, et quelques autres encore, se sont fait les portraitistes de l'absolu

Was bedeutet Sichtbarkeit, betrachtet in ihrer je spezifischen Beziehung zu ihrem Gegenteil, der Unsichtbarkeit? Der vorliegende Band nimmt in neun Beiträgen diese verwickelte Relation auf dem Gebiet der drei maßgeblichen Diskurse – Wissenschaft, Literatur und Kunst – um 1800 in den Blick. Um 1800 werden die später grundlegenden und wirkmächtigen Ausarbeitungen des Gegensatzes von Sichtbarkeit und Unsichtbarkeit konzipiert, theoretisch ausformuliert oder praktisch umgesetzt. Die Einzeluntersuchungen nehmen ihren Ausgangspunkt von zwei logisch-fundamentalen Grundkonstellationen des Gegensatzpaars »sichtbar/unsichtbar«: Die eine fasst das Verhältnis als komplementär-inklusiv auf, die andere spitzt es auf einen kontradiktorisch-exklusiven Gegensatz zu

    Main description: Aus neuzeitlicher Perspektive ist die Präsenz von Schrift an deren Sichtbarkeit und Lesbarkeit gekoppelt. Ist diese Vorannahme schon an sich fragwürdig, so ist sie für Schriftpraktiken vormoderner Zeiten, bei denen gerade das Verbergen und Verhüllen eine große Rolle spielten, kaum haltbar. Das Ziel des Bandes ist es, die Kategorie der „restringierten Schriftpräsenz“ aus interdisziplinärer und transkultureller Perspektive kritisch zu hinterfragen. Main description: From the perspective of early modernity, the presence of writing is linked to its visibility and legibility. This may be a questionable assumption, and it was especially problematic for writers in the premodern era, for whom concealment and veiling played such an important role. The aim of this book is to critically examine the category of the “restricted presence of writing,” from an interdisciplinary and transcultural perspective.

    "Arthur C. Clarke famously wrote that, 'any sufficiently advanced technology is indistinguishable from magic.' These words most certainly ring true with respect to invisibility cloaking devices. At work is the magic of science, of course. The technology to make an object simply disappear from view is now a reality. There is both great fear and great desire in the thought of invisibility. Indeed, for thousands of years, authors have grappled with the idea. Power, devilry, secrecy, ethical dilemma, and moral corruption - invisibility has it all. And yet, our waking world is full of familiar invisible phenomena. Electricity flowing along a metal wire, the gravity that keeps us grounded, the air we breathe, the bacteria and viruses that make us ill, the X-rays that reveal our broken bones - all are invisible to our eyes. They surround and envelop us, and we don't give them a second thought. Nature long ago learned how to play tricks with light rays, enriching the world with rainbows, mirages, and animal camouflage. The new physics of invisibility simply aims to take these tricks of nature a few steps further. Indeed, by learning what light is and how it interacts with matter, physicists have begun to take control of light - with metamaterials, which, man made, can be precisely melded, warped, twisted, transformed, and even time-edited. In this book the ancient and modern story of light and invisibility is revealed, from early Greek speculations to the remarkable works of James Clerk Maxwell. The new and burgeoning field of transformation optics is also explored, and the story behind the development of the first fully functional invisibility cloak is charted"--P. [4] of cover
