[microsound] Post-digital photography



I'm interested in the idea that the post-digital aesthetic that is often discussed with relation to music also exists in digital photography. I.e. there are approaches to digital photography that question its techniques, claims, technology, etc.

I have started a group (http://www.flickr.com/groups/post-digitalphotography/), but as there has yet to be any discussion of the subject in the group, very probably because the members are unfamiliar with the idea of 'post-digital', I thought I'd enquire about it here.

If you go to http://www.flickr.com/photos/josephscott80/sets/72157594180426039/ you can see examples of the kind of works I consider to be 'post-digital'.

Does anyone know of any photographers who consider their work to display a 'post-digital' aesthetic? I'm not talking about 'glitch' photography (although it is one approach), as that is more about what happens when technology fails rather than approaching the technology in a different way, but photographs that view 'digital photography' as something new rather than a mere continuation of film photography, that question the ideology of 'digital photography', etc.

I hope everyone understands what I mean.

Any links to informative articles on the 'post-digital' aesthetic in the arts will be great appreciated, especially if they can be used as introductions to the ideas for people unfamiliar with them and cultural theories in general.
