PHOTO CONFERENCE | THE PHOTOGRAPHIC UNIVERSE @ PARSONS

Coming up on the 2nd/3rd of April there is a conference at Parsons on the topic of photography. It is free and open to the public. I think that there will be some interesting discussions going on there. I am hoping that the discussions and presentations will go beyond the observations that I seem to be hearing everywhere lately: we "are innundated with photographs" or that "our world is so saturated with images that we no longer see" etc. Anyway, come and hear for yourself! 

About | The Photographic Universe:

The field of photography is constantly changing. Technologies, theories, and what constitutes a 'photographer' or a 'photograph' are prone to unending developments. In the last decade, this rapid transformation has only accelerated due to pervasive digitization. Paradoxically, one might say that photography is now in a similar place to where it was during the first few decades of its invention–a time when its emerging cultural significance quickly expanded due to innovative technological developments. Similarly, in the last two decades, we have seen an expanding definition of photography through the digital revolution, the Internet, and the accelerated stream of interest in new photographic processes and applications. Thus, it is important to reflect on this current moment – with the rapidly increasing permeation of photography throughout contemporary life – on what is the importance of photography as a specific medium or discipline from the perspective of a practitioner, user, pedagogue, technologist, historian, among others. Furthermore, how can we evaluate contemporary culture within the expanding photographic field while speculating the future of images? The Photographic Universe: A Conference will attempt to answer these questions through broad artistic, scientific, cultural, sociopolitical arcs to examine the implications of images in contemporary life. The event is free and open to the public.
