- W2023593810 abstract "Abstract In his most recent book on images W. J. T. Mitchell poses the question ‘What do pictures want?’, implying that pictures may have an independent life. While it is clear Mitchell is making a rhetorical argument, he is drawn repeatedly to the various life‐like properties pictures seem to possess in terms of their affect on people. To resolve the apparent incongruity between pictures’ life‐like properties and their inanimate form it is useful to apply the definitions, concepts, and data‐analysis tools of biological systematics to the study of image sets and their evolution. In particular, the distinction between images and pictures Mitchell and his colleagues have noted seems to mirror both the split between biological species and individuals and the split between genes and bodies. Because of biological taxonomists’ reliance on pictures of organisms, the status of their type specimens as totems and because of the formal system taxonomists have developed to manage their totem‐type system, it is likely that an iconological study of the manner in which taxonomists use images would repay the efforts of those who seek to understand the relation between pictures and culture. Moreover, there exists an intriguing similarity between Mitchell’s concept of the image and Dawkins’s concept of the meme. If images do evolve, as Mitchell suggests they may, the pattern of pictorial correspondences among image sets should follow a well‐established distribution and be susceptible to analytic tools biological systematists use to infer organismal phylogenies. Results of an empirical test of this hypothesis suggests that formal phylogenetic analysis of picture evolution by a close comparative analysis of images is possible and that picture phylogenies are both highly informative and very reminiscent of patterns obtained from similar analyses of organisms." @default.
