Abstract

This research has as context the photographic image and seeks to establish a discussion that, in the new relationship with technology - these relationships mediated by virtual environments (digital) - expresses a new relationship between image and subject. The influence of digital technology in analog media makes the photographic image to reinvent, to seek new forms of interaction through their applications in the digital environment, thus creating, through different degrees of immersion, new possibilities of interpretation of reality, hence the possibility of investigating the levels of representation of reality in the photographic image, these levels, based on the ideas of Basarab Nicolescu (2006) in an article entitled "Heisenberg and the levels of reality", which although not specifically address the photograph, we will build on some their ideas. The guiding line is the investigation of levels of representation in the new applications and relationships - digital - the photographic image with the technology in virtual environments, based on the degree of immersion of the subject. Thus, explicitaremos how the relationship of the photographic image with the technology - virtual environments - reflect on the subject. (AU)
