In our fleeting mortality, humans have long dreamed of capturing a moment in time. The long, arduous evolution from cave-paintings through the Renaissance showed our dedication to the idea of capturing epic hunts and grand battles in still images. Then the photographic camera annihilated that thousand year metamorphosis into instantaneous moments truly captured on film. The actual rays of light from these moments captured on photosensitive paper created a new evolution of image; from dour, unsmiling portraits to Lo-Fi filtered selfies. Thanks to the global album, Insta, it seems we now have more moments captured in photos than we have actual moments. Get in the shot with Mat, Veronique, and Guest – Pete Hassett – as we focus on what’s truly important: what Aunt Karen had for lunch, or what Billy’s baby had stuck in her hair, or all the other Nonsense Photographs.
