Lecture: The Image Reproduced





Summary:
Photography has become a large part of culture and modern society. We use it in many different ways for all sorts of reasons. The lecture covered such things like photography being "a right of family life" and how "photography certifies the experience but also refuses it". Photography can be used to focus in on emotions of the moment like in that of American Beauty and it also shows the idea of Narcissism in ways like selfies. It's also used to make political statements and also to trigger nostalgia for those who have grown up through the progression from old to contemporary methods of photography.
