I’ve just finished the second module of my master’s program in photography. The module was assessed through an in-progress-portfolio and a video documentary around my own photographic methods. Both assignments are handed in but not yet graded as I record this.
Despite the discrepancy between the podcast format and the visual nature of photography, I’ll use this episode to make those two assignments public.

This episode is dedicated to an analysis of contemporary photography using Donna Haraway’s classic text The Cyborg Manifesto and a few other related theoretical ideas. Karen Barad’s idea of socio-materiality and intra-action and Michel Callon’s actor-network theory.

Location scouting. Night photography. Dealing with curious strangers. Feeling photo resistance. How the sum is greater than individual parts. The strength of a collection. About not really ever being finished.
