Threshold Concept
These are abstract photographs that have been set up by the photographer. The top right one looks possibly staged as they is a hundred of light bulbs hanging down from the celling and the room is extremely messy and does not look like a normal humans room. This is because they is towels and clothes just sitting wherever they is also empty plates and blows just laying around. I think the artist might want to mislead the viewers as they want to show they creativity and show the different side of the world. The top left one makes me ask myself how did it look like before? and how did it turn into this mess?, The top right one makes me think why is they light bulbs hanging? The title of the photographs give a short summary of what is going on. The two top photographers have a similar style because they are very cluttered and messy.
Threshold Concept number two.
I think threshold concept is useful because they are ten different descriptions that explain the use of photography and can give you good ideas for your photographs and help you explain the way you get to your ending piece. They can teach you a lot of different things about photography, for example this threshold concept says "photography is the capturing of light; a camera is optional". They help you think of photography in a different way for example, most people think photography is just using a camera and editing them in photo shop then its done but really they is many different ways. From what i have learnt about threshold concepts they can help me with photography because this concept makes us think about the lighting and tells us you can make photographs in all different ways. That is because this threshold concept tells us that a camera is optional and you can choose.
Camera obscura
The Latin name means “dark chamber,” and the earliest versions, dating to antiquity, consisted of small darkened rooms with light admitted through a single tiny hole. In its simplest form, a camera obscura is a dark room with a small hole in one wall. When it's bright outside, light enters through the hole and projects an upside down image of the outside world onto the wall opposite the hole.
Abelardo Morell
Abelardo Morell is a Boston base photographer and also paints constructions. Morell began his camera obscura series in 1991. Transforming entire rooms into cameras by covering the windows and inserting a small hole, he photographed the outside world as projected onto various interiors. Abelardo was inspired by his young children, he began looking more deliberately, he later wrote "i started making photographs as if i was a child myself."
