		<description><![CDATA[&#8220;I don&#8217;t remember, but I wanted to go back to sleep and keep dreaming.&#8221; —- The girl Ako in Hiroshi Teshigahara&#8217;s short film Ako/White Morning (1963). &#160; Where exactly are we, when we are looking at a photo? Asking the question is easier than providing answers. At the most, we can talk about it in approximate [...]]]></description>

		<title>This is not a photobook: Errata Edition’s study on Zdeněk Tmej’s &#8216;Abeceda: duševního prázdna&#8217; and the mystery of missing pages.</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Photobooks are precious objects. The previous decade saw a rapid increase in their popularity and in their monetary value. Largely responsible for this are the books on photobooks by Andrew Roth (The Book of 101 Books, 2001) and Martin Parr &#38; Gerry Badger (The Photobook: A History, two volumes, 2004 &#38; 2006). These reference works [...]]]></description>

		<title>Reading Photographs from the Penal Colony</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Disasters do not only leave populations vulnerable to official refusal of aid or an increase in repression of dominant political powers, moreover, people in disaster zones are also more likely to be exposed to cameras and its operators.

		<title>On Photography’s Photographicness</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Photography as we know it has its techno-cultural origins in the first half of the 19th century, but as a natural phenomenon photography must have been known since ages. German art historian and philosopher Peter Geimer, in Bilder aus Versehen: Eine Geschichte fotografischer Erscheinungen [Images by Accident : A History of Photographic Appearances], tells of [...]]]></description>

A single photograph is unable to show much nor to explain what it shows. To become meaningful and explicit, a photograph needs to be contextualised with [...]]]></description>

		<title>Prehistoric Photography</title>
		<description><![CDATA[For a while now, I&#8217;ve been intrigued by the history of photography before photography. The official birthdate of 1839 always struck me as being artificial. The means to fixate images on photographic plates marks an end stage of sorts in a long (pre-)history of camera obscura uses, and the beginning of an era that will [...]]]></description>
