The Future of Photography

137 The Future of Memories (Photography and Minimalism)

Minimalism is very popular right now. One mainstream interpretation of minimalism is to help clear your mind/life by having less physical stuff. But stuff has memories. Or does it? Does the stuff just trigger the memories? Could a photo of the thing do the same? Is a digital record of our most precious things the way forward? Picks of the week: Olympus, iPhone camera app silvertone filter, Gah! zine, Masao Yamamoto (2, 3), the Glucksman.
