Abstract

ABSTRACT This essay proposes that the intricate but sprawling evolution of diagrams might be looked at through a single graphic system. It is further proposed that this system might reconcile diverse definitions of ontological and temporal minima, in a sequence of 25 types of historical diagram that concludes with a kind of meta-diagram of diagrams. The ‘demon’, a historical form of hypostatic abstraction, is introduced as an eidetic body useful for exploring this diagrammatic space. The complete sequence was exhibited in a complex installation, titled ‘The Demon in the Diagram’, which is also discussed.

这篇文章提出，错综复杂的，但庞大的演变的图表可能被视为通过一个单一的图形系统。进一步提出，该系统可以调和本体论和时间最小值的不同定义，在25种历史图的序列中，以一种图的元图结束。“恶魔”，一种实体抽象的历史形式，被引入作为探索这个图解空间的有用的象形体。完整的序列在一个名为“图中的恶魔”的复杂装置中展出，这也是讨论的内容。

期刊介绍： The Journal of Visual Art Practice (JVAP) is a forum of debate and inquiry for research in art. JVAP is concerned with visual art practice including the social, economic, political and cultural frames within which the formal concerns of art and visual art practice are located. The journal is concerned with research engaged in these disciplines, and with the contested ideas of knowledge formed through that research. JVAP welcomes submissions that explore new theories of research and practice and work on the practical and educational impact of visual arts research. JVAP recognises the diversity of research in art and visual arts, and as such, we encourage contributions from scholarly and pure research, as well as developmental, applied and pedagogical research. In addition to established scholars, we welcome and are supportive of submissions from new contributors including doctoral researchers. We seek contributions engaged with, but not limited to, these themes: -Art, visual art and research into practitioners'' methods and methodologies -Art , visual art, big data, technology, and social change -Art, visual art, and urban planning -Art, visual art, ethics and the public sphere -Art, visual art, representations and translation -Art, visual art, and philosophy -Art, visual art, methods, histories and beliefs -Art, visual art, neuroscience and the social brain -Art, visual art, and economics -Art, visual art, politics and power -Art, visual art, vision and visuality -Art, visual art, and social practice -Art, visual art, and the methodology of arts based research
