“…Existing research in semiotics and visual culture studies already delves into the automatic labeling and recognition/representation of AC by AI. For example, Soro et al (2022) offer unique insights into the spatiotemporal dimensions of the face and its significance in cultural contexts, shedding light on implicit biases in facial recognition algorithms through training images. This research provides valuable groundwork for comprehending how AC are visually interpreted and represented, elucidating the interplay between cultural contexts and visual representations.…”

Delving into the intricate complexities of naming and categorizing the visual evocation of abstract concepts, this paper brings to light the limitations of relying on binary thinking to tackle these inherently intricate “wicked problems.” As computer vision applications rapidly expand, the pressing challenge of accurately labeling these abstract concepts in visual media comes into focus, necessitating a close examination of the interplay between visual data, nuanced cultural meanings, and artificial intelligence (AI). This work discusses the role these concepts play in automatic visual indexing, as well as the ways in which they expose how binary frameworks curtail technical performance and perpetuate power dynamics. To address this, the paper draws upon insights from recent cognitive neuroscience research and advocates for a more comprehensive, queer, and situated understanding of these concepts. This approach highlights the significance of humanistic and ethical perspectives in shaping the trajectory of AI development.

This manuscript begins with a brief introduction that establishes the theoretical background, followed by a tripartite unfolding that explains the following contents: 1) the path from point zero as a plurimorphic space of semiotic tranquility; 2) the historical trajectory of physiognomy and pathognomy suggestions; and 3) new biometric readings and the digital face. We postulate the neutral state of the face and see a possible manifestation of it in the tranquility illustration and theorization by Le Brun. Together with the passive face recounted by Magli, these are some of the static aspects of that space called the face, full of signs that write and compose it and allow its physiognomic reading. Degree zero, the pre-signal null point from which interpretation originates, determines the semiotic potential of the face, and the expressions of the emotions become the key to pathognomy studies, in their historical-cultural variants. We will then see how, in today’s highly technological and mediatized society, there are new biometric manifestations linked to the digital face. From the Bertillonage of the early 1900s, we conclude with a work of contemporary art that critically revisits the same approach.
