Now Reading: Camera Lucida
thought: Do we treat photographs the same way we treat words in some aspects? Sometimes we come across words and they don’t do much for us. We scan them and move on. Sometimes we don’t remember what those words are a second after we read them and other times we don’t understand those words or even want to understand them. Sometimes we hate the words and can’t stand the sight of them. Do we think “why on earth do these words exist, they have nothing to do with me!”? I think in many ways books and photographs can be compared. Will try to give examples in a post in the near future. Do you also treat photographs like that?
