If you read the history of any new communication medium such as the
cinema, television or radio, it always happens to be bound up with
advances in some underlying technology. For example, cinema was
born out of the rapid projection of a series of still images on a
celluloid film strip. The difficulty of synchronizing sound
recordings with the resulting moving images led to about 30 years
of silent films - until such time as the technical problems were
solved. In between the inventions, media seem to grow and develop
at a slower pace, as content producers and consumers experiment
with the most satisfactory and stimulating ways of communicating
with each other. In the same example, silent film-makers eventually
found ways of adding dialogue through scene titles and having music
played during the projection of their films. This book is about the
next chapter in the history of photography, which is emerging from
a relatively stable period into a chaos of new inventions.
Photography as we know it is at the same point as the silent films
of 1926. The transition from analog to digital photography is
spawning many new ways of taking, manipulating and sharing
photographs. It is also bringing photography and videography closer
together by unifying sound, still and moving images in the same
digital medium.
