Nonhuman Photography
Hello everyone,
Recently I've been researching different media formats that can be considered representing the nonhuman aspect of photography, and I'd love to know your opinion on this topic. I know that photography can be said to be of more-than-human origin, say photosensitive surfaces exist in nature; take even photosynthesis, a process of converting energy from sunlight into chemical processes. Even fossils could be considered a prehistoric nonhuman photographic form. The discovery of silver nitrite having roots in medieval alchemy that later saw the appearance of various inventions implementing it, led us today onto a media archeological path. Correct me if I’m misinterpreting something. I was also looking at petrography, micrography, scanning electron microscopy (sem); technology that enables scientists to see the nonhuman/geological processes: invisible to the ocular and temporal perception. On the opposite side, drone and satellite imaging showcasing the incomprehensible scale of earth and the universe.
I feel like a lot can be done with the ‘nonhuman photography’. I’m curious to hear what you guys think, if you have any experience with that, or if you know something I haven’t mentioned.
