I can feel changes. Changes in how I deal with photography, mostly. Documenting “sighted things”. My perception of photographing is starting to become so different now too. Before, I would have a more or less worked out visual image of a certain scene in my mind. But now, after hearing so many of my photographs described back to me, that’s changing. I’ve listened to many of my photos in sequential form now. Photographs sometimes take 90 seconds, sometimes two minutes. So my photography has stopped being the instantaneous capture of a moment in time. Instead, capturing has become a process, an approximation towards a final image. An image that simulates sight, but isn’t. A construction of motif, space and movement. The stuff of life arbitrarily put together. There’s an increasing fullness in the making of it, in the interaction with those who create my images with me. I think it indicates that I’m becoming more procedural in my practice. The sequence is dominant now, the flow of time. In stead of the stopping of it.
