Giving outrageous visual form to nothing: An interview with Daniel Rubinstein
This interview with Daniel Rubinstein was conducted by Bernd Behr and Andrew Fisher over the summer of 2024. It marks the point at which Daniel resigned his editorship of Philosophy of Photography, which he co-founded with Andrew in 2010. The interview covers these events and their relation to the genesis and the continuing development of Daniel's intellectual project. Since the 1990s, his work has sought to bring the critiques of representation …
Relieve de Cine en Relieve
This series of images forms part of the ongoing project Soft Ground, Hard Light, which speculates on a multiscalar spatial ontology of photography emanating from the Arditurri silver mine complex in the Basque Country. Evoking the mountainous massif around Arditurri where silver ore and galena have been extracted since Roman presence in the area, the depicted topographies are, in fact, data transcriptions from atomic force microscopy (AFM) probin…
The promise of photography: Scale, measure and proportion in a conflicted visual milieu
This roundtable discussion is based on an online symposium - The Promise of Photography: Scale, Measure and Proportion in a Conflicted Visual Milieu - which took place on 17 September 2021. Since its inception, photography has promised to set things to scale, to grant them measure and proportion, a series of promises that have also entailed moments of irrationality or conflict that persist in and continue to shape the era of global networked digi…
The divisive moment
This article discusses the 2019 Event Horizon Telescope (EHT) image of a black hole as an ontological question for photography, contrasting its spatially distributed operations as a planetary apparatus against its temporal inscriptions of successive histories of scientific realisms following Lorraine Daston and Peter Galison. The 'becoming photographic' of this image, this text argues, hinges on the distance it traverses from its scientific milie…
Photographic indexicality: Once more, with feeling
Akeley inside the elephant: Trajectory of a taxidermic image
As a process distinct from its poured cousin, sprayed concrete involves using compressed air to propel cement with various chemical admixtures at a surface. Used in tunnelling for rock surface stabilization, and above ground for securing slopes and fabricating fake rockeries, its chimeric character ranges from the polished landscapes of skateparks and swimming pools to mimicking cast concrete in structural repair work. The origins of this industr…
