Lines of Sight-the seventh volume in the Mechademia series, an annual forum devoted to Japanese anime and manga-explores the various ways in which anime, manga, digital media, fan culture, and Japanese art-from scroll paintings to superflat-challenge, undermine, or disregard the concept of Cartesian (or one-point) perspective, the dominant mode of visual culture in the West since the seventeenth century. More than just a visual mode or geometric system, Cartesianism has shaped nearly every aspect of modern rational thought, from mathematics and science to philosophy and history. Framed by Thoma.
