>>4061111Photography is Dead
All art pales in comparison to music. No one cares about photography, it can't convey emotion like music or literature or film, nor it can touch the deepest part of our subjectivity. And there are too many photographs already in the world(3.2 billion images, I repeat 3.2 billion images are being shared everyday on internet), everyone is a self proclaimed photographer these days, everything has been photographed to the point of utter absurdity and meaninglessness. So why should anyone keep doing photography? Why should anyone bother with photography? If everyone is doing it then it is already meaningless, a rotten corpse and dead. No one gives a fuck about anyone's snapshits except his own, I mean even self proclaimed photographers don't even give a single shit about the most famous and critically acclaimed photographers or so what are you expecting? People can maybe recognize few famous photographs but most can't name the photographers. The majority of so called photographers don't know even the ABC of photography's art history so what are you struggling towards? Recognition? Few dopamine hits? Immortality through art? Why are you're taking these photographs? And for whom? Don't say yourself because you share them on internet to get (You)s but when thread will be over or when someone will scroll past your photo on Instagram, after looking at it for 2 seconds it will be forgotten and lost in the gutters of internet, forever.
