✦ Synopsis

Seeing is believing, but images in science are often based on mathematical and philosophical presuppositions. Computation and imaging, which once seemed to be in conflict, have become interconvertible. It seems that pictures will become more and more important in science. This should not lead to new illusions about supposedly direct insights into the essence of things.
