Abstract
In her book ‘Glitch Feminism’ Legacy Russell proposes that we are no longer either a physical presence situated in a physical world, or an online digital version of ourselves; but our
existence is a hybrid of these that has been recentred to the extent that we are now either online or AFK, Away From the Keyboard and temporarily offline. It follows that the medium by which we have traditionally documented and evidenced our physical lives has itself gone through a similar process of recentering and redefining. The mechanisms around image capture and image creation are becoming increasingly blurred and notion of photography being an indexical system of drawing with light now seems somewhat outdated. Using both historical imagery and some more recent examples from my own practice I’ll be exploring some thoughts arising from this transformation.
