Mobile Photography & Art – Flickr Group Showcase – 30 January 2022
This week, I’d like to talk with you about courage and it’s scary, being creative is a path for the brave. If you lose courage, you lose creativity. Each one of you has hidden treasures within you, as do I and we need to bring them to light and it takes a lot of faith and hard work, not least devotion. It’s important to say ‘no’ at times, I suppose, not that I’m one for that, it’s easy to say ‘no’, you’re off the hook but if you say ‘yes’ then what happens? It’s showtime! There are times, when you might need to lay low, as I have this past…

Discussion on AI Art Apps between Mobile Artists, Jerry Jobe and Meri Walker
I am delighted to publish this discussion on widely popular AI Art Apps between our award winning mobile artist and resident tutorial editor, Jerry Jobe with award winning mobile artist Meri Walker (iphoneartgirl). It is very interesting, enjoy! (foreword by Joanne Carter). Jerry: The mobile art world has been overtaken recently with artificial intelligence (AI). Apps like Wombo Dream and StarryAI take an input text prompt and create wonderful images from it. Naturally, after the initial experimentation has taken place, conversations have arisen on the implications of this new method of creating images. This isn’t a new conversation, of course. AI tools have been in existence for years, helping…

“In these last decades ‘concerned’ photography has done at least as much to deaden conscience as to arouse it”, Sontag, S. On Photography (1979). Sontag argued that beleaguering the public with sensationalist photographs of war and poverty was a definitive way to numb the public’s response. Sontag believed that the more distressing images people viewed, the more immune they became to their impact; viewers became reduced to inaction, either through guilt or a dismissive lethargy towards making a difference. Sontag reversed this view in Regarding the Pain of Others (2004), but ‘compassion fatigue’ is still used as an argument against war imagery today. I have been thinking about this a…

Mobile Photography & Art – Flickr Group Showcase – 9 January 2022
I like to create targets for myself, that way, it helps me to keep on schedule and achieve what I intend to do. For so long, I’ve been reading one book a week and by doing so, it allows me to travel, throughout the world, there’s a sense of freedom I experience with each page turned. This week I’ve been reading a novel about economic migrancy, called The Road Home. A subject we’re all aware of but so often ignore. The author Rose Tremain tackles the issues brilliantly.
