The Genius of Photography 摄影演义
In the course of our 170 year relationship, photography has delighted us, served us, moved us, outraged us and occasionally disappointed us. But mainly, it has intrigued us by showing the secret strangeness that lies beneath the world of appearances. And that is photography's true genius

The desire for photography is an ancient one. The Roman writer Pliny recounts the legend of a young woman who traced the outline of her departing lover shadow on the wall. Inspired by this, her father made the first sculpture and so western art was born, but all the poor girl really wanted was a snapshot. It wasn't until the 1830s, that science found a way to satisfy her desire, that by then had it become a part of scientist.
'No, it's no accident that the only conceptions of the photography happened to coincide with the era, that we call now romanticism, because many of the ideas and concerns are the/ Romantic Movement, find themselves embodied in the experiments towards photography. That's say Courige will be lying on a hillside and looking up in his half gazed eyes he sees dazzling in sun and he thinks how can I possibly capture this evanescent moment. And photography, this thing which captures a moment from time and fixes it in place is a kind of answer to this romantic struggle. '
It had been known for centuries what a camera obscura could do. The breakthrough came with the observation that certain chemicals were light-sensitive. 'As if it was well-known for at least a century before 1839 that's for example, silver salts, silver chlorides, silver nitrate reacted and responded to light, darkened and therefore images could be made. The problem that was difficult to solve was to stop the image being made to find a way, if you like fixing the image stop it developing and eventually becoming black. I mean we have, for example, an account published in 1802 by Hanfree Davian in the Journal of the Royal Institution where he discusses experiments that he and Tom Wager would have been making , if experimenting with these silver salts. They sought a piece of leather and they may try to make contact prints where they literally put a piece of technical specimen on... directly onto it, expose it to light and then for a moment, they actually saw an image come up and then heartbreakingly, I suppose, the image kept going black until it disappeared. So as early as 1802, well before the announcement of the. . . a marketable photographic process in 1839, we find at least these two people and probably many more who have experienced photography momentarily. '
Among the proto-photographers struggling to fix the fleeting shadows was Henry Fox Tolbert, M. P. the master of Lake Cork cabby and a world authority on botany and cuneiform writing. But there was one flaw in this polymath's list of accomplishments, he couldn't draw photography.
'Here is Henry Tolbert to his accomplished in all sort of things, but he has absolutely no idea how to take that complicated colorful three dimensional world and get it down to lines on a piece of paper. And it was then he started thinking about the camera obscura and started thinking about chemistry and when he went back to Lake Cork in sometimes the spring of 1834, his fertile mind started putting all these things together. '

点!尔何如?鼓瑟希,铿尔,舍瑟而作,对曰:异乎三子者之撰。子曰:何伤乎?亦各言其志也。曰:莫春者,春服既成,冠者五六人,童子六七人,浴乎沂,风乎舞雩,咏而归。夫子喟然叹曰:吾与点也。 |
