The book is inspired by the first seminar in a cycle connected to the celebrations of the 150th anniversary of the Politecnico di Milano. "Dealing with the Image Ivory Towers and Virtual Bridges" was the motto of this meeting; aiming to stimulate a discussion among engineers; designers and architects; all of whom are traditionally involved in the use of the Image as a specialized language supporting their work; their research activities and their educational tasks. The book will also include the essays of invited or interviewed authors from other disciplines; namely Philosophy; Mathematics and Semiotics. According to Regis Debray; in the present "Visual Age"; which he has significantly defined as a "Video-Sphere"; all the information tends to be processed and controlled by means of visual devices. This occurs especially in the various branches of many technical studies and activities; one of the most sensitive areas to the use of Visual Language in the past and even more in the present.
