To destroy images is something every revolution has been able to do.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Looting and site destruction are global problems. We have a tough road ahead, and one key will be developing more collaborations and using new technologies like satellite imagery.
Images contaminate us like viruses.
The differences between revolution in art and revolution in politics are enormous. Revolution in art lies not in the will to destroy but in the revelation of what has already been destroyed. Art kills only the dead.
If we can become the de facto standard for image capture of unique perspectives around the world, we have a lot of growth ahead of us.
Sometimes art is ahead of revolution.
The worst of revolutions is a restoration.
Photography has always been capable of manipulation.
And it seems to be today, image is a real important thing once again.
Politics will eventually be replaced by imagery. The politician will be only too happy to abdicate in favor of his image, because the image will be much more powerful than he could ever be.
These days, everything is magnified very quickly by the media - the slightest slip can turn into a catastrophe.
