Good read by Jim Pickerell over at Black Star Rising on how images get selected from online databases. I really want a much deeper conversation on this, though. Perhaps some case studies on how images were chosen when things went wrong or went really right. This section is where I want more from: Algorithms Have Replaced Editing Twenty years ago...

Just a Matter of Time … and Why It Happened

Sometimes, it doesn’t … Remy Thurston, a new student of mine, sent me a direct message a little while ago: The New York Times is reporting Kodak has filed for bankruptcy protection. I could ponder this for a while, kick a stone around the parking lot, asking how the heck does this happen? But I...
