Advancement in the Technology of Digital Photography
Digital Photography
The subject of the paper is the advancement of the technology of digital photography. The paper will provide a concise review of the history of this aspect of photography. Film photography came first in the late 19th century and early 20th century. Moving pictures followed after the invention of film photography. Several decades later, the first attempts at digital photography were made by the mid-20th century. Photography in general is the progeny of painting and so digital photography is a part of that same artistic lineage. The advent of digital photography reflects a shift in attitude and goals during the time of invention; not only does the technology from that time, but also the forward thinking of the period continues to infuse and inspire digital photography today, surely continuing into the future.
The beginning of digital photography is the era of the 1950s. The 1950s was a point in American culture and when there was a lot of attention and imagination on the future. During this period, there were many experiments and research studies into turning some things thought to be science fiction into scientific reality. Digital photography is a product from the forward thinking of that period.
Like many modern technologies digital photography can trace its beginnings back to "Space Race" when the United States and the Soviet Union were in competition for supremacy in outer space and were racing to be the first county to put a man on the moon. This time period from 1957-1975 saw an unparalleled advancement in technology, including the beginning development of digital cameras and digital photography. (PPT, 2012, no page)

Also referring, however, to the way photography can either reflect reality or create illusion, the author does understand the importance of the evolution of digital media. "Straightforward photographs can be used legitimately and effectively to show that things exist. But mislabeled or manipulated photographs can be used to create illusions of existence," ("How to Do Things with Pictures," p. 195). There is also a middle ground between these two

Technologies like array tomography also show how the human brain may be best understood as a computer that operates on both electricity and on chemicals. One section of the brain, the cerebral cortex, contains more than 125 trillion synapses. Boyle's (2010) source material from the Stanford School of Medicine notes that the number of synapses in the brain is "roughly equal to the number of stars in 1,500 Milky
Reframing The Archive�We don�t need the new sentence; the old sentence re-framed is good enough,� � said Kenneth Goldsmith.IntroductionThe last two years have radically altered the way most of us live, work, and create, forcing us to reconsider our connection with our previous photography work.
