| Research Abstract |
James J. Gibson(1904-1979) is known as an "ecological psychologist" who created the concept of "affordance". But what is the purpose of his project? In this research, I reconsider Gibson's theory of vision as contemporary "natural philosophy" in which perceptual systems attempt to directly encounter some complex environments in our world. Those environments are more complex than objects of communication and control in cybernetics. In this perspective, I go on to critically analyze "visual culture" including visual aspects of architecture in the 20^<th> century America.
