Though rarely considered seriously, those accidents can offer fascinating insights about the nature of the medium and how it works. Peter Geimer explores all kinds of photographic irritation from throughout the history of the medium, as well as accidental images that occur through photo-like means, such as the image of Christ on the Shroud of Turin, brought into high resolution through photography. Geimer's investigations complement the history of photographic images by cataloging a corresponding history of their symptoms, their precarious visibility, and the disruptions threatened by image noise. Interwoven with the familiar history of photography is a secret history of photographic artifacts, spots, and hazes that historians have typically dismissed as 'spurious phenomena', 'parasites', or 'enemies of the photographer'. With such photographs, it is virtually impossible to tell where a 'picture' has been disrupted--where the representation ends and the image noise begins. 650 0 $a Photography $x Psychological aspects. 650 0 $a Photography $x History. 650 0 $a Photography $x Philosophy. 650 0 $a Phenomenology. 650 7 $a Phenomenology. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01060522 650 7 $a Photography. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061714 650 7 $a Photography $x Philosophy. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061781 650 7 $a Photography $x Psychological aspects. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01061815 655 7 $a History. $2 fast $0 (OCoLC)fst01411628 700 1 $a Jackson, Gerrit, $e translator. 941 $a 1 952 $l OVUX522 $d 20191214014410.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=BC46AD56840811E89478B85797128E48Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
