The Visual Science Lab: Up In Smoke. Burn the past.

A very interesting and thoughtful post by Kirk Tuck in Austin. I profiled him on LE here.

The Visual Science Lab: Up In Smoke. Burn the past.:

"Pretty much the stuff we had last year would work just fine this year. It might even represent overkill.

Someone will mention fashion photography or product photography and the need for higher quality repro and you'll have me dead to rights there. But how many of us really do that versus how many of us do corporate headshots, products for the web, and lifestyle for web and lower quality print publications?

The gear anchors us emotionally to a past that is NEVER coming back. Even when the economy recovers we'll still face the reality that our media have shifted. That production has changed. Everything has progressed into a direction that is bearing less and less resemblance to the past."
