It is worthy of note that a revival of non-representationalism is taking place at the historical conjuncture when digital simulation technologies have nearly been perfected. Hypothetically everything conceivable by the human mind can be visualized with the aid of digital technology. The area of technical practicability no longer contains any limitations, the only borders are posed by human imagination and intellect. At the beginning of the century, abstract art brought an abrupt expansion of the conceivable. While a comparable and similarly radical
developement in the 21st century would be desirable, it seems to be rather unlikely at this moment.
