marco bohr blog - questions and queries - photography and digital communities - images old and new - recycled and appropriated - Doug Rickard and Michael Woolf (?) google street view
what is the work?
what is the photograph?
authorship - intention - production - interpretation
photographs as witness to - looking at the process that's set in motion
haptic photogra[hs - zooming iPad
gap between gallery and real life
frames and prints - who cares about them?
now the world is constructed from screens
we arre formed and produced by the technology
how where they produced? once the process was laid bare - now it's kept a digital secret
fetishising tragedy -
bring back the author
a process of making - gesture
the gallery as antidote to the storm of the internet
releasing the photograph from the burden of being visual
travellers of the network
knowledge vs information
slowness of the process
the voice of the grain
