Photography and vertigo are so similar: a photograph freezes the moment, interrupting the continuous flow of life; vertigo is the inability to connect glimpses of perspective and vision in a lived continuum. In many ways, vertigo is an embodied photography. #photography #theory

In the end, it turns out that emotional resilience, suppleness and flexibility is crucial for creative thinking as well. scitechdaily.com/new-research-r…

@thamesandhudson This beautiful and necessary book of yours is out of print - and is selling second-hand at a high price. Are you planning a reprint or a second edition? thamesandhudson.com/photographers-…

@FlakPhoto Being a brand means you are beholden to a market - and so, can't change at will :/ By the way, are you migrating to mastodon? I know @PixelFed is a good alternative (not mastodon but federated with it).

Photographers, can you relate?

Thankful for the people who kept me afloat this year with their kindness, empathy and friendship. Ah, and also contributed to American democracy. <3

Consensus imagery of the world gradually drifting from reality when: important read and thread for all visual researchers.

Positive thought a-yes!

@Nuclearpasta1 It will have less of an impact than Trump had on the US because 1. of EU laws and commitments and 2. government has little impact on the everyday life of people anyway :/

Just got a hold of this little book, ambiguously titled Photographic Stupidity. Its author was an irreverent rabble-rouser in the photo world and the book is a provocation about the ability of photography & the photographic gesture to create meaning, in a socratic dialog format.

Digital hygiene more crucial than hand sanitizing.

Dance/art in the face of fear is a powerful weapon of resistance.

Just done a slot on @bbc5live with @TVNaga01 on cost of living crisis & museums as warm safe spaces. Contact us if you are planning this &/or struggling with heating bills this winter @MuseumsAssoc

If your field is not specifically related to the sensorial experience of touch, this is an important intro book for you. linkedin.com/pulse/touch-re…

How analog are you? Converting to non-digital, non-electric everyday practices of living is a small gesture and it won't save that much energy really, but it's significant as a sensorial connection to the world. Reminds me I haven't worn a watch lately. Correcting this asap.

If the point is the product, sure, AI can replace artists and we'll just have #AI #art. If the point is the process, then making art might be one of the few reasons for people to exist in bodies. If the point is to play, combining both is a great new path.

@museodel900 Siete aperti nel mese di agosto in modo continuativo? Sul vostro sito non c'e' info di chiusura estiva. Grazie!

Sembra troppo? Non veramente, se lo scopo e' costruire un evento internazionale. Altrimenti il vostro investimento e' fallito. In bocca al lupo :) 10/fine

Dopo l'evvento provvedete di 1) una piattaforma di contatto per i paretecipanti, cosi' da allungare il loro contatto (p.es. mailing list, indirizzi, ecc) e 2) continuate a aggiornarli dopo l'evento di qualsiasi follow up, come pubblicazione, rassegne, ecc. 9/

State organizzando un convegno, mostra o un evento, sperando che abbia partecipazione internazionale? Ho visto tanti eventi sprofondarsi ultimamente per la mancata organizzazione. Ecco come fare/cosa non fare. 1/🧵
