100 Ideas That Changed Photography by Maria Popova From the camera obscura to the iPhone, or why photography is an art of continuous reinvention. Earlier this year, British publisher Laurence King brought us 100 Ideas That Changed Graphic Design, 100 Ideas That Changed Film, and 100 Ideas That Changed Architecture. Now comes 100 Ideas That Changed Photography (public library) — an equally concise and intelligent chronicle of the most seminal developments in the history of today’s most prevalent visual art. Syracuse University fine art professor Mary Warner Marien writes in the introduction: Before it materialized as the camera and lens, photography was an idea. Marien goes on to illuminate the history of photography alongside the parallel history of innovations in science and technology, as well as social and cultural developments across philosophy, politics, and aesthetics. The latent image was coaxed from the daguerreotype plate by being exposed to mercury fumes in a so-called 'bath' like this one. Donating = Loving

(Really) Stunning Pictures and Photos | Monday Inspiration Theater of the Streets, Shot On Google Glass Richard Koci Hernandez—@koci_glass Taken in San Fransisco, an image posted to the photographer's @koci_glass Instagram account on June 24, 2013. More than a century ago, in New York City, Paul Strand began creating some of the earliest candid street photography. Today, “I finally feel like my eye is a camera,” says Richard Koci Hernandez, an Emmy award-winning multimedia producer, photojournalist and professor of New Media. Hernandez spoke to LightBox about his work, the newest tool in his arsenal and what it all means for the future of street photography. You’ve been doing street photography for 25 years. Street photography for me is not so much about going out to hunt for pictures, but allowing them to come to me in my daily life. Take me through the progression of cameras you’ve used. My first camera was a Minolta range finder, then a Nikon FM2, then I went through the iterations of professional cameras. When digital cameras came along, I wasn’t a big fan.
Seven Warning Signs of Bogus Science Robert L. Park, Ph.D The National Aeronautics and Space Administration is investing close to a million dollars in an obscure Russian scientist's antigravity machine, although it has failed every test and would violate the most fundamental laws of nature.

There is, alas, no scientific claim so preposterous that a scientist cannot be found to vouch for it. Before 1993, court cases that hinged on the validity of scientific claims were usually decided simply by which expert witness the jury found more credible. Justice Stephen G. What are the warning signs? 1.
Amateur street photography: a beginner's guide | Art and design Picture the scene: you're out on the sidewalk – maybe shopping, chatting or just daydreaming. Suddenly, you notice a shifty-looking bloke pointing a camera at you. What's your reaction? Discomfort, embarrassment – anger? Before you lose your temper, spare a thought for the person behind the camera. So why do we do it? We talk about "taking" a photograph, but the process is nowhere near as one-sided as the word implies. City streets are a great place to take photographs. For those who yearn to make the leap from admiring other people's photographs to photographing other people, street photography is the obvious starting point. Ironically, street photographers expose themselves to even more scrutiny than their subjects. Hostility A negative reaction is what every nervous neophyte most expects and fears. Resentment This is often just an expression of self-consciousness. Act naturally. If you do get caught taking someone's photo, you might as well make sure you've taken it. Disapproval Posing
