everal philosophers of the late 20th century (especially Gilles Deleuze, Jean- François Lyotard and Jacques Rancière) wondered about the specific visibility of thought and the difference between thought and artistic images. How do we manage to see a thought while reading a book or listening to a lecture? What is the difference between seeing and understanding? Is there one? Can a thought be represented? Together with Catherine Malabou we will consider whether neuroimaging, together with the productions of artificial intelligence, allows us to answer these questions in a new way. The challenges of this set of questions are at once philosophical, artistic, pedagogical, and political.
