Photography & Consciousness

A conversation on Photography & Consciousness in the age of Ubiquitous Computation / Computational Cameras

BarCampCSULB - Saturday, 18 Oct 08

 

 

Amazing new tools are changing our relationship to our visual culture and reframing human perception and consciousness. For example, even though photography has "lied" since the beginning, we have always felt that photography was an index of the true in a way that no other visual media (eg painting) ever was (hence the furor over "minor" photoshopping of OJ Simpson on Time magazine, etc)

 

Now as our ability to manipulate images, and to redo the photography after the fact grows, as well as the staggering increase in capture & display abilities and the number of images we're exposed to grows, what is the nature of our relationship to visual images? How do we experience them? How do we perceive ourselves within this vortex of images.
