This new edition of The Photographic Image in Digital Culture
explores the condition of photography after some 20 years of
remediation and transformation by digital technology. Through ten
especially commissioned essays, by some of the leading scholars in
the field of contemporary photography studies, a range of key
topics are discussed including: the meaning of software in the
production of photograph; the nature of networked photographs; the
screen as the site of photographic display; the simulation of
photography in the videogame; photography, ubiquitous computing and
technologies of ambient intelligence; developments in vernacular
photography and social media; the photograph and the digital
archive; the curation and exhibition of the networked photograph;
the dominance of the image bank in commercial and advertising
photography; the complexities of citizen photojournalism. A
recurring theme addressed throughout is the nature of 'photography
after photography' and the paradoxical nature of the medium in the
21st century; a time when the traditional technology of photography
has become defunct while there is more 'photography' than ever.
This is an ideal book for students studying photography and digital
media.
