If you ever
want a unique point of view try a “fisheye” lens. Like looking
through a door peephole (which in fact is a “fisheye” type)
this order of lens sacrifices linear correction in favor of a very wide
angle of view. Originally made for creating “full sky” images
when pointed straight up, they had long ago been adopted by photographers
for creation of decidedly different points of view, and, today, even doing
QuickTime movies to display the interior of a condo or vacation home. |

Once or
twice a year we like to take a look at what types of cameras are being
purchased and how photographers are printing their images. The latest
report from the Photo Marketing Association (PMA) provides an interesting
overview of these trends through the end of 2007, so let’s take
a look. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||

There may come a time when the machines don’t need us anymore, when they might become self-generative and self-sustaining, when inventors become vestigial to inventions. This will not, I imagine, happen overnight, but could be a slow progression—or degeneration on the part of our species—to the point where the data on someone becomes more important than the person themselves, or even when the actions we take are redundant to what the machine can accomplish, with considerably less consternation. I am not suggesting
that we are at this precipice, yet, some things I’ve seen
recently in our little corner of the world make me wonder where
this digital thing might be heading, why we might or might not want
to go there and where it might all end up. | ||||||||||||||||||||||||
