Course: ARTD313 - Beginning Digital Photography

Task: Define what punctum and studium mean to you, the photographer. Make meaningful photographs of the people, objects, places, meals, clothes, groceries, everything that you see that compels you to make a photograph. Creatively interact with the subjects you are photographing. Keep your camera with you as much as possible because you never know when punctum and/or studium might strike your creative mind.

Readings: Excerpts from Camera Lucida by Roland Barthes, and Keeper of the Hearth: Picturing Roland Barthes’ Unseen Photograph by Odette England.
