“One view of photography is that it is a zen-like act which captures reality with its pants down - so that the vital click shows the anatomy bare. In this, the photographer is invisible but essential. A computer releasing the shutter would always miss the special moment that the human sensibility can register. For this work, the photographer's instinct is his aid, his personality a hindrance.” HumansMomentsShowsRealityViewsSpecialMissingPersonalityEssentialsComputerPhotographyInstinctPhotographerAidsInvisibleCapturePantsSensibilityClicksRegisterAnatomyHindranceShuttersSpecial MomentsZen Like Author:Peter Brook
“... the thing that's happening today vis-á-vis computer imaging, vis-á-vis alteration, is that it no longer needs to be based on the real at all. I don't want to get into jargon - let's just say that photography to me no longer pertains to the rhetoric of realism; it pertains more perhaps to the rhetoric of the unreal rather than the real or of course the hyperreal.” WantNeedsRealTodayCoursesComputerPhotographyHappeningsRealismRhetoricUnrealJargonAlterationsImaging Author:Barbara Kruger
“Photography is solitary and there are lags between seeing with your eyes and seeing through the lens, and then seeing the image on your computer... I often see things after the fact.

“Before, the myth of photography doesn't lie was used in order to cover up tricks. If I [make a] portrait [of] you, accommodate you, illuminate you, put make up on you or use a filter, am I not manipulating reality? The only difference is that now I can do it from the computer in the postclick instead of the preclick. If I decide to photograph something instead of something else, I also manipulate reality.

“There are many innovators hard at work seeking to perfect alternatives to meat, milk, and eggs.
