This collection explores the cultural fascination with social media forms of self-portraiture, "selfies," with a specific interest in online self-imaging strategies in a Western context.

This volume offers a critical and creative analysis of the innovations of Deathscapes, a transnational digital humanities project that maps the sites and distributions of custodial deaths in locations such as police cells, prisons and immigration detention centres.

The authors of this book take a critical look at the practice and techniques of digital imaging from the stance of digital archaeologists, cultural heritage practitioners and digital artists.

This is the first collection of essays focused on the many-faceted work of Kendall L. Walton. Walton has shaped debate about the arts for the last 50 years. He provides a comprehensive framework for understanding arts in terms of the human capacity of make-believe that shows how different arts - visual, photographic, musical, literary, or poetic - can be explained in terms of complex structures of pretense, perception, imagining, empathy, and emotion. His groundbreaking work has been taken beyond aesthetics to address foundational issues concerning linguistic and scientific representations - for example, about the nature of scientific modelling or to explain how much of what we say is quite different from the literal meanings of our words. Contributions from a diverse group of philosophers probe Walton's detailed proposals and the themes for research they open. The essays provide an overview of important debates that have Walton's work at their core. This book will be of interest to scholars and graduate students working on aesthetics across the humanities, as well as those interested in the topic of representation and its intersection with perception, language, science, and metaphysics.

"TWO KINDS OF PEOPLE begins at a crossroads. Faced with two possible paths, what kind of person are you? Choose your direction, left or right, because there are only two kinds of people. At the crossroads, you stand looking around, and as you do, the road begins to abstract itself, the clarity of this duality fading as the two paths fill with different shading, color, the layers becoming visible to you. Yet, you haven't even taken a step, still frozen, between your two choices. Slowly, the stiffness turns into poise, as your awareness opens outwards, allowing you to take in the poetry of the moment. These words guide you: ... here's to chaos, here's to spontaneity and spunk mixing gaily And to more stolen apples, taken freely -Yes. Please. To more of this! This book of poetry invites you into the subtle porosity of the present, found in small moments: on street corners, between strangers, friends, and in the many ingredients you might add to your borscht soup. The poetry reminds, gently, that there is ; only this world / ... ; only today / ... ; only we two, face to face and as you return to the present and recall that you must make a choice between one thing and the other, it is only to realize that you are now in a vast field, without any clear paths in sight.

Photographs of actual people at work in various industries in Los Angeles and its environs: cloth, wood, metal, oil, and chemicals. Most of us have little sense of how the stuff of our lives is actually manufactured and the places where that happens. Los Angeles is one of the premier industrial concentrations in the United States. This book shows the reader just what they ordinarily do not see. Krieger has visited hundreds of industrial sites in the Los Angeles area. He is invited in about a third of the time, and then he systematically photographs the people--at work--who make clothing, furniture, chemicals, metal parts, as well as those working at the ports of Los Angeles and Long Beach and at the iconic County Hospital of Los Angeles. Up close, we discover the actual work that people do, and the places where they do that work.

One native's photographic survey of the long-stereotyped Appalachian regionFor the past 12 years, American photographer Stacy Kranitz has been making photographs in the Appalachian region of the United States in order to explore how photography can solidify or demystify stereotypes in a community where the medium has failed to provide an equitable depiction of its people. Born and raised in Appalachia, Kranitz approaches the region as a spectator, but not an outsider. Rather than reinforcing conventional views of Appalachia as a poverty-ridden region, or by selectively dwelling on positive aspects to offset problematic stereotypes, she insists that each of these options are equally damaging ways of looking at a place. In a foil-stamped clothbound hardcover with a design reminiscent of a topographical view of the region, this first monograph of Kranitz's work features 225 four-color plates. The photos are accompanied by excerpts from the weekly column "Speak Your Piece" from the Mountain Eagle newspaper based in Whitesburg, Kentucky. As the story of As it Was Give(n) To Me unfolds, Kranitz begins a new kind of narrative: one that examines our understanding of culture and place in a manner that is poised between notions of right and wrong.Stacy Kranitz (born 1976) was born in Kentucky and currently resides in the Appalachian Mountains of Tennessee. She has been documenting the region since 2009, while also working as an assignment photographer for various publications including Time, National Geographic and Vanity Fair. She received a Guggenheim Fellowship in 2020. Her work is in the collections of the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston and the Harvard Art Museums.
