Witnessing carnage
On October 7, 2023, Hamas launched a coordinated attack on Israel, documenting atrocities through wearable cameras and disseminating footage on platforms like Telegram. This article investigates how these self-documented acts exemplify the erosion of traditional distinctions between perpetrators and mediators of representations of violence. Using point-of-view (POV) aesthetics and leveraging decentralized digital platforms, Hamas transformed viol…
The uncanniness of interactive photography
Photography has always been associated with the physical activity of the human body: capturing, editing and viewing photos are all activities that involve the user's spatial interaction with the technology used. With conventional photography, one aspect of spatial relation with technology is the viewer's ability to recognize the camera's location in the photographic scene through visual indications, such as the relative location of objects in the…
The Human Tripod
How can professional photography continue to exist in an age of machine vision? As this article suggests, computational photography destabilizes the ideology of professional photographic distinctiveness, expertise, agency and creativity. In an era characterized by constant instability due to technological developments, changes to photographer’s professional habitus are expected. While these changes are connected to technical modifications in prof…
Digital Séance
Digital afterlife is becoming increasingly possible due to advancements in VR, deepfake, and AI technologies. The use of computational photography for mourning and commemoration has been re-integrated into practices of remembrance, farewell, continuity, and disengagement. Two case studies, the Shoah Foundation's Dimensions in Testimony and the TV production Meeting You, are analyzed to explore these new possibilities. We show how photography's ne…
Sentient Photography
Thanks to the smartphone, photography has become pervasive in contemporary digital culture. Yet the smartphone’s very ‘smartness’ profoundly alters the relations of control between humans and technologies in image-production practices. Unlike dedicated cameras, smartphones use built-in sensors for small-scale positioning to ‘sense’ user’s bodily orientations and states of motion. Combined with photographic applications, this ‘sentience’ enables d…
