History of Photojournalism Since the mid-19th century, photojournalism emerged with pioneers like Roger Fenton and Mathew Brady capturing images during the Crimean and American Civil Wars respectively. The "golden age" from the 1930s to 1970s saw advancements like compact cameras and photo-driven magazines. Despite changes in media consumption, photojournalism remains crucial for delivering impactful news. https://lnkd.in/g4YJVNed #WSUpjHistory #Photojournalism #PhotojournalismHistory #History/1
🌍 Art in the Community: Engaging Audiences Through Public Art Projects 🎨 One of the most rewarding aspects of being an artist is the opportunity to connect with the community through public art projects. Recently, I had the privilege of working on a [insert project name] installation in [city/area], where the goal was to create something meaningful and accessible to all. Public art brings creativity into shared spaces, sparking dialogue and offering moments of reflection. Whether it's a mural, sculpture, or interactive installation, these works can unite people, encourage participation, and even offer a platform for addressing important social issues. Through this project, I aimed to [insert your project goal], and seeing how the community engaged with the piece was incredibly inspiring. This experience reminded me of the powerful role art plays in shaping not just individual perspectives but the culture of the places we call home. 🌟 What's your favorite public art project you've seen, or maybe even been a part of? 🌟 #Imagineart_socials #PublicArt #CommunityEngagement #ArtForChange #CulturalImpact #ArtistLife

☎️ Latinx and Hispanic identifying visual artists in the Bloomington, IN area: submit your art to Repost: Hispanic Heritage Month Exhibition by August 23, 2024! How does your online presence amplify, obscure, distort, or reflect your real life self? What hardware and software do you open, use, and manipulate every day? Does digital technology influence your emotions, whether it expedites a process or slows it down? Have you ever met the people you interact with online in real-life? How does online culture trickle into your present interactions? I intend to pose the above questions to local Latinx and Hispanic identifying artists and ask them to represent their thoughts in a variety of media, including but not limited to painting, sculpture, drawing, photography, jewelry, or film to culminate in a pop-up exhibition, Repost, to open at the 505 Theater at the FAR Center for Contemporary Arts. Their works should incorporate some aspect of online digital culture, hardware, or software. Please note that 2D and 3D pieces are preferred. Repost is curated by Claudia González Díaz and Daniela Panigada Cook. 📲 Please reach out to me with any questions.

A brilliant new Truth Serum from team Antonym and the exemplary Ryan Massey of Massey Klein Gallery. One of our favorite outcomes of these interviews is exploring the ways language and communication intersect with every industry, all the time, everywhere. I love what Ryan says about filler language and favoring the objective over the subjective. "We try to stay away from subjective words, like 'interesting,' where the meaning really changes based on who is using the word. We try to focus on factual input. The work is this color, this shape, this process or concept, and the artist intends for it to evoke such and such in the viewer. We also connect our artists' work to art historical references, which can illuminate the work by showing a kind of roadmap to how it got to this place and contextualize it." Don't say something has benefits. Express the benefits directly and make them come tangibly alive for your audience. Don't say your new formula is powered by "supercharged ingredients." Explain the ingredients and educate on why they're uniquely efficacious. Don't simply state your superlativeness and expect it to stand for itself. Bring your receipts. Break down the reasons why you are "the most" and make it immediately transparent. Thank you, Ryan, for giving us a glimpse of your fascinating world and perspective. 🖤 (Also, as a former art school kid, 💯 on the oft-nothingness of artspeak.)
In a brand new Truth Serum, Ryan Massey of Massey Klein Gallery tells us the dirty secret no one tells you about running an art gallery, how to use words to capture a business so rooted in visuals, and the coolest thing to ever happen in the gallery. “The truth is there is a grace to doing this job well. It often involves swallowing your pride and putting the artist's best interest first, always.” https://lnkd.in/es5TWuYX
It's great that this product is now out in the public arena! I was contracted to develop a few pieces of software for this project: The first was a translation layer that converts the results of PROV's public query API (a Solr web API endpoint) into a standard "Collection" as defined in the International Image Interoperability Framework (IIIF). This lets you query the PROV data and retrieve a long list of results in a standard format which you can then view using regular IIIF software. The second part I did was a simple JavaScript+HTML front end on this IIIF Collection, that displayed thumbnails and metadata for each item (i.e. photograph) from the IIIF Collection, and allowed users to navigate to another page of results, or click through to a page showing the item in full. My third contribution was a web-based user interface (another JavaScript single-page application) that helps a user to generate a query against PROV's Solr API. That last component is a tool for developers, whereas the other two are directly for people researching PROV's collection. All this code is open source: https://lnkd.in/gBvSutAb
Manager, Communications, Programming and Digital Innovation at The Victorian Archives Centre - Public Record Office Victoria.
It has been a long time coming but finally after many years, my team and I have project managed and produced a searchable interface for tens of thousands of historic photographs of Melbourne and Victoria from the public collection. As the colony of Victoria was developed so too did photographic technology which makes this collection particularly significant as both a record of photographic history and a British colony under development. Sometimes projects like this seem so simple to deliver but are always fraught with little challenges from the collections world.....but we got there!
