it’s a beautiful reflection.
The New York Times has installed *Visual Studies*, a series that explores how images move through and shape culture.

Thanks @profgillian.bsky.social , very interesting question. I haven’t come up with an answer, some books such as Gustavson’s ‘Camera’ suggest arriving at the ‘digital’ from that perspective, but of course the book doesn’t fully answer the question.
I’ve enjoyed Gunthert’s L’image partagée…

Today we discuss with the filmmakers of Kukaan ei katso sinua silmiin (No one looks you into the eyes) loneliness, camera-mediated sociality and the life around us that is only visible mediated via technologies. Incl screening of the film!
