11. Camera Lucida: Reflections on Photography (with Helen Miller)
What happens when a French philosopher writes about photography while grieving for his mother? Did you think that was the setup to a Freudian joke? What's wrong with you? You people make us sick.
The wonderful Helen Miller joins us to discuss Roland Barthes' seminal photography text Camera Lucida.
Also mentioned: John Berger, Giorgio Agamben, Aristotle, Georges Perec, Geoffrey Batchen, La Jetée, Walter Benjamin, Arnold Toynbee.
Intro music: Candy Jail by Silver Jews
Outro music: Broken Front Teeth by Scotland Yard Gospel Choir
