Documentary photography has undergone a process of devaluation in post-apartheid South Africa. In response, Patricia Hayes has introduced the term “empty photographs” into the scholarly conversation, using it to designate images that have been derided as “‘bad,’ ‘boring,’ or repetitious” in post-apartheid settings (“The Uneven Citizenry,” 189). This article revisits a subset of such images to contest their seeming emptiness—pallbearers escorting dead activists to their graves during political funerals in late-apartheid South Africa. Focusing specifically on Afrapix photographer, Gille de Vlieg’s images of Themba Dlamini’s funeral in Driefontein in 1990, the paper restores their local history to view and unpacks the visual cultural and material cultural circuits of militant mourning in which they were embedded. It then uses various orders of metonymy in the visual field to comment on the “necropolitics” of the apartheid regime (Achille Mbembe, “Necropolitics”). The paper concludes with a reflection on Ariella Azoulay’s notion of the “civil gaze” (Civil Imagination) and considers what unfolds when a reckoning with the differential distribution of death that characterizes necropower reorients this faculty away from the individual photograph towards series, genre or corpus.
在种族隔离后的南非,纪实摄影经历了一个贬值的过程。作为回应,Patricia Hayes在学术对话中引入了“空照片”一词,用它来指代在后种族隔离环境中被嘲笑为“无聊”、“无聊”或重复的图像(《Uneven Citizenry》,189)。这篇文章重新审视了这类图像的一个子集,以对抗它们看似空虚的一面——在种族隔离晚期的南非,抬棺人在政治葬礼上护送死去的活动家走向坟墓。本文特别关注非洲裔摄影师Gille de Vlieg 1990年在Driefontein拍摄的Themba Dlamini葬礼的照片,还原了他们当地的历史,以观察和揭示他们所处的激进哀悼的视觉文化和物质文化回路。然后,它在视野中使用了各种转喻顺序来评论种族隔离政权的“亡灵政治”(Achille Mbembe,“亡灵政治学”)。最后,本文反思了Ariella Azoulay的“公民凝视”(公民想象)概念,并考虑了当对死亡的差异分布进行清算时会发生什么,这种差异分布是死亡力量的特征,将这种能力从个人照片转向系列、流派或语料库。

Photographic records of early 1900s polar expeditions encapsulated a paradox: the spectacle of “monotonous” “numbing whiteness” in images of “nothing” that were intended for public exhibition. This article examines expedition photography as an ecosystem of materials and meanings to reconsider the status of the “failed” photographic experiments that have remained sublimate to the iconic images of polar exploration. Light sensitive materials — photographic emulsion layered onto glass plates and strips of flexible transparent celluloid nitrate film — are integral to the registration of the image. However, these materials are also susceptible to the effects of humidity, touch and variations in temperature. Anomalies, such as details that were effaced by overexposure to light and watermarks registered the effects of labour in a polar climate These “failed photographic plates were occluded from exhibition, yet remain integral to the ideation of the incomprehensible in polar expedition narratives. In this context, experimental and “failed” images can be read as part of an ecosystem of interactions and begins to decipher the popularity of Ponting’s 1911 photograph “Ice-Blink”, the image of a seemingly featureless ocean horizon, as the commodification of “nothing” in discursive spaces of exhibition.
20世纪初极地探险的摄影记录概括了一个悖论:在公开展览的“什么都没有”的图像中,“单调”的“麻木的白色”景象。本文将探险摄影视为一个材料和意义的生态系统,以重新考虑“失败”的摄影实验的现状,这些实验一直升华为极地探险的标志性图像。感光材料——层叠在玻璃板和柔性透明硝酸纤维素胶片上的感光乳剂——是图像配准不可或缺的组成部分。然而,这些材料也容易受到湿度、触摸和温度变化的影响。异常,例如,由于过度暴露在光线下而被抹去的细节和记录极地气候下劳动影响的水印。这些“失败的摄影板被遮挡在展览之外,但仍然是极地探险叙事中不可理解的构思的一部分。在这种情况下,实验性和“失败的”图像可以被解读为互动生态系统的一部分开始解读庞廷1911年的照片《冰的闪烁》(Ice Blink)的流行,这是一幅看似毫无特色的海洋地平线的图像,是展览话语空间中“什么都没有”的商品化。

Pyrotechnics and photography: saltpeter and the colonial history of photographic lighting 烟火与摄影:硝石与摄影照明的殖民历史

Bengal light was among the earliest commercial sources of artificial lighting for photographic use, patented as Photogen in February 1857. Essentially, a pyrotechnic flare whose vital ingredient was saltpeter, it was mined by low caste laborers in Bengal, which had emerged as the leading global producer of saltpeter by the eighteenth century. Saltpeter was a coveted global commodity because it served as the primary material for the manufacture of gunpowder and also had wide-ranging industrial applications. Its use for photography provides an early instance of the commodification and trade in lighting technologies and materials, challenging dominant assumptions about photographic light as a freely available natural resource accessible to all. It asserts the presence of artificial lighting in early photography to contest invocations to the sun and divine light that dominate characterizations of the period. Finally, saltpeter ties early photographic lighting into a wider imperial trade of commodities for war, to further cement the analogies between the camera and the gun noted in many photographic studies. Encapsulated in its use is an imperial history of global trade that hinged on extraction of natural sources, colonial labor, and alliances between military and industrial technologies of light.
孟加拉光是最早用于摄影的人工照明的商业来源之一,1857年2月获得Photogen专利。本质上,它是一种烟火,其重要成分是硝石,由孟加拉的低种姓劳工开采,到18世纪,孟加拉已成为全球领先的硝石生产国。硝石是一种令人垂涎的全球商品,因为它是制造火药的主要材料,也有广泛的工业应用。它在摄影中的使用为照明技术和材料的商品化和贸易提供了一个早期的例子,挑战了关于摄影光是一种人人可自由获得的自然资源的主流假设。它断言早期摄影中存在人工照明,以对抗对太阳和神圣光线的调用,而这些调用主导了这一时期的特征。最后,硝石将早期的摄影照明与更广泛的帝国战争商品贸易联系起来,以进一步巩固许多摄影研究中提到的相机和枪支之间的类比。它的使用体现了帝国的全球贸易史,它依赖于自然资源的开采、殖民劳工以及军事和工业光技术之间的联盟。

Oscillons and cathode rays: photographic hybrids in early computer art 示波器和阴极射线:早期计算机艺术中的摄影混合体

Computer art emerged in the 1950s and 60s as a strange hybrid of analogue and digital technologies. Although not always acknowledged, photography plays an important role within this early history. During a period when computers were first being coaxed into generating images, photography was often a necessary technology of capture for screen and projection effects that would otherwise remain undocumented. Photography served as the preservational memory of these early visual experiments. This essay will consider two examples of early computer art documented photographically: Ben F. Laposky’s “Oscillon” works (produced with an analogue oscilloscope) and the digital images produced by A. Michael Noll at Bell Labs. These early examples of computer art are images that reveal the porous boundaries between science and art, the analogue and the digital, the computational and the photographic. They offer an important precedent to our current moment of digital post-photography, in which the technological status and very definition of the photographic is under review. These early moments of computer art encourage us to consider the complex nature of digital images and the complex material infrastructures involved in their creation, preservation and distribution.
计算机艺术出现在20世纪50年代和60年代,是模拟技术和数字技术的奇怪混合体。虽然不总是被承认,但摄影在这段早期历史中发挥了重要作用。在计算机第一次被用来生成图像的时期,摄影通常是一项必要的捕捉技术,以获得屏幕和投影效果,否则这些效果就不会被记录下来。摄影是这些早期视觉实验的保存性记忆。本文将考虑两个早期计算机艺术摄影记录的例子:本·f·拉波斯基的“振荡”作品(用模拟示波器制作)和贝尔实验室a·迈克尔·诺尔制作的数字图像。这些早期计算机艺术的例子揭示了科学与艺术、模拟与数字、计算与摄影之间的多孔边界。它们为我们当前的数码后摄影时代提供了一个重要的先例,在这个时代,摄影的技术地位和定义正在被重新审视。计算机艺术的这些早期时刻鼓励我们思考数字图像的复杂本质,以及它们的创作、保存和传播所涉及的复杂材料基础设施。

On ludic photography 论荒诞摄影
Pub Date : 2021-09-02 DOI: 10.1080/17540763.2021.1957003
P. Buse
This article explores “the play element in photography”, to adapt a key phrase from Johan Huizinga’s Homo Ludens (1938). The context for this exploration is the melancholic paradigm that dominates much of contemporary writing and thinking about vernacular or popular photography, a paradigm that emphasises memory, death and mourning, at the expense of other practices and dispositions, not least the ludic. It notes that the existing literature on photography and play concentrates almost entirely on humorous images: optical jokes, trick photography, and a wide variety of distorted pictures. But play is an activity, a practice, as much as it is a product or an outcome. In other words, the ludic in photography is not just a quality of the object photographed, but of a photographic doing. Following this principle, the article shows the ways in which key modes of play such as competition, chance, make-believe and vertigo, are at work in photographic practices old and new, including in the aerostatic photography of Félix Nadar, with which it begins and ends.
本文探讨了“摄影中的游戏元素”,以改编约翰·惠津加(Johan Huizinga)的《卢登斯人》(Homo Ludens)(1938)中的一个关键短语。这种探索的背景是忧郁的范式,它主导了当代关于白话或流行摄影的大部分写作和思考,这种范式强调记忆、死亡和哀悼,而牺牲了其他实践和倾向,尤其是滑稽。它指出,现有的关于摄影和戏剧的文献几乎完全集中在幽默图像上:光学笑话、特技摄影和各种扭曲的图片。但游戏是一种活动,一种实践,就像它是一种产品或结果一样。换言之,摄影中的滑稽不仅仅是拍摄对象的质量,而是摄影行为的质量。遵循这一原则,文章展示了竞争、机会、假装和眩晕等关键游戏模式在新旧摄影实践中的作用方式,包括在费利克斯·纳达尔的空气静力摄影中,它以这种方式开始和结束。

Contesting plant-blindness with photography: Michael “Nick” Nichols’s portrait of a giant sequoia 用摄影挑战植物盲目性:迈克尔·“尼克”·尼科尔斯为一棵巨大的红杉拍摄的肖像

Michael “Nick” Nichols’s 2012 portrait of the 3200-year old, 247-foot tall giant sequoia named the President, the second largest tree known, for National Geographic, comprised of 126 separate photographs which have been digitally combined to make one image, challenges cultural plant-blindness and confronts the ethics of representation of plants, in particular trees, when the images are printed on plant-based paper. Neither art nor scientific illustration, the photojournalistic image draws connections between trees and photography, and both individualizes the tree and metaphorically references the biocommunity in which it participates. Nichols’s approach to the portrait, which recognized the intimacy between himself, his team, and the tree, draws attention to plant sentience. The materiality of the image, published as a fold-out poster printed on paper that includes tree content, has the capacity to alert the viewer to the ethics of plant representation.
迈克尔·“尼克”·尼科尔斯(Michael“Nick”Nichols)2012年为这棵3200年树龄、247英尺高、被《国家地理》(National Geographic)命名为总统的巨型红杉拍摄的肖像,这棵树是已知的第二大树,由126张单独的照片组成,这些照片经过数字组合制成了一张图像,挑战了文化中的植物盲症,当图像打印在植物纸上时。无论是艺术还是科学插图,摄影新闻图像都将树木和摄影联系起来,既使树木个性化,又隐喻性地引用了它所参与的生物群落。尼科尔斯对肖像的处理方式,认识到了他自己、他的团队和这棵树之间的亲密关系,吸引了人们对植物感知的关注。图像的实质性是以折叠海报的形式发布的,海报印刷在包含树木内容的纸上,能够提醒观众注意植物表现的道德规范。

Howard Caygill
The recent surge of interest in the sensory, cognitive and communicative strategies of plant life and the development of neurobotany and phyto-philosophy resumes a debate that briefly flourished in the early twentieth century. Francis Darwin and Gottlieb Haberland then proposed that plants possessed vision and memory, a position rapidly abandoned until its recent revival. A striking contribution to the earlier debate was botanist Harold Wager’s showing of a series of photographs purported to have been taken using lens extracted from plant leaf epidermis. The article will reflect on the status of this photographic practice, in which plants are posed as the photographing subject rather than photographed object, and consider its wider implications for non-human photographic practices.
最近,人们对植物生命的感官、认知和交流策略以及神经生物学和植物哲学的发展的兴趣激增,重新引发了一场在20世纪初短暂繁荣的辩论。弗朗西斯·达尔文(Francis Darwin)和戈特利布·哈伯兰(Gottlieb Haberland)随后提出植物具有视觉和记忆,这一观点很快被放弃,直到最近才得到复兴。植物学家Harold Wager展示了一系列照片,据称这些照片是用从植物叶表皮提取的镜头拍摄的,这对早期的争论做出了惊人的贡献。这篇文章将反思这种摄影实践的现状,在这种摄影实践中,植物被设定为摄影主体而不是摄影对象,并考虑其对非人类摄影实践的更广泛影响。

Measuring photographs 测量的照片
Pub Date : 2021-09-02 DOI: 10.1080/17540763.2021.1957004
Tomáš Dvořák, J. Parikka
This article investigates relationships between photography and measuring. It outlines main types of visual measurement within scientific photography (such as spectroscopy or photogrammetry) and proposes to broaden the analysis by understanding measuring as a visual cultural technique, which has a particular reach outside scientific institutions and uses. Here it connects arguments from media theory with questions of photography and argues that the centrality of measurement and metrics can be backtracked from current focus on questions of digital data to earlier techniques and discourses of visuality. It traces the conjunctions between the practices of imaging and measuring in the Renaissance, offering a genealogy that aligns photography with acts and processes of measuring, comparison, standardization and scaling as both their effect and cause. Making or looking at photographs always implies sighting, gauging, measuring and co-measuring, which as cultural techniques can be approached as recursive chains of operations.
本文探讨了摄影与测量之间的关系。它概述了科学摄影(如光谱学或摄影测量学)中视觉测量的主要类型,并建议通过将测量理解为一种视觉文化技术来扩大分析范围,这种技术在科学机构和用途之外具有特殊的影响力。在这里,它将媒体理论与摄影问题的争论联系起来,并认为测量和度量的中心地位可以从当前对数字数据问题的关注回溯到早期的视觉技术和话语。它追溯了文艺复兴时期成像和测量实践之间的联系,提供了一个谱系,将摄影与测量、比较、标准化和缩放的行为和过程结合起来,作为它们的结果和原因。制作或观看照片总是意味着观察、测量、测量和共同测量,作为文化技术,这可以作为递归的操作链来处理。

Why do heliotropes move together with the sun, selenotropes with the moon, moving around to the extent of their ability with the luminaries of the cosmos? All things pray according to their own order and sing hymns, either intellectually or rationally or naturally or sensibly, to heads 10 of entire chains. And since the heliotrope is also moved towards that to which it readily opens, if anyone hears it striking the air as it moves about, he perceives in the sound that it offers to the king of the hymn that a plant can sing. Proclus, On the Priestly Art According to the Greeks.
为什么向日镜与太阳一起移动,而不是与月亮一起移动,在宇宙亮度的范围内移动?所有的事物都按照自己的顺序祈祷,并向整个链条的头10唱赞美诗,无论是理智的还是理性的,无论是自然的还是理智的。由于向日葵也向它容易打开的方向移动,如果有人听到它在移动时撞击空气,他会从它提供给赞美诗之王的声音中感知到植物会唱歌。普罗克洛斯,《论希腊人的祭司艺术》。
