This examination of the differences between Eastern and Western conceptions of space explores the special relations seen in Chinese and Japanese art to make the case that modern visual computing is the result of Eastern influences. Drawing on the work of 18th-century philosophers such as Gottfried Wilhelm von Leibniz, this work argues that early Chinese influences on post-Renaissance Europe changed the artistic and technological course of the world. Also addressed are the important ways in which a classically Chinese conception of space continues to influence the Western world in the modern era, particularly in the work of artists such as Frank Lloyd Wright and Theo van Doesburg.
