Microscopy tiny worlds/big impacts Flusser’s 1983 Towards a Philosophy of Photography He was writing about the shifting of
photography. There are a lot of different photographs, and different
photographs have different intentions. Fine art, medical, propaganda, and of
course the most influential image-production machine is advertisement. This
transformation, let’s say, of the scientific photography into the art world,
or advertising photography into politics (as seen in the last U.S.
election)—this modification of images from one intention to another brings
about interferences. The image, and the meaning of the image, changes. Tiny worlds - visit 1: Feb 23 5PM to 7:50PM Basic introduction to the field of microscopy
