There is another possible way of representing the use of photography. Perhaps we can observe a specific spot. Through video we record the amount of people taking photographs in a certain time period. The notifying factor will be the pronounced movements that people make when taking a photo.

Photography has a myriad of purposes in the current digital age. Especially with the improvement of technology, most people almost always have some sort of camera on their person at all times. Images are being taken constantly. These images are often in a digital format and stored that way.
TEST CLICKS
We have decided to create our own sound piece to represent the use of photography in the digital age. This sound piece has been created through a process of technical conversions. We have taken a photo of the Markthal in Rotterdam from Google Images and converted it into binary (text-image.com). The binary information was then converted into an image (jeffreyatw.com). By converting the binary created image back into binary we got our final information. This binary code was then used as a ratio for the "score" of our sound piece.
1 = .5 second click
Ratio =
0 = .5 second silence
FUTURE CLICKS
There is another possible way of representing the use of photography. Perhaps we can observe a specific spot. Through video we record the amount of people taking photographs in a certain time period. The notifying factor will be the pronounced movements that people make when taking a photo. From the data we collect, we will create a "music score" and sound piece by using the reverse of the ratio above. The score will then be seen as binary. This will be converted into an image that corresponds to our sound piece.
FINAL WORK
Digitalization is a complex preocess. The inbuilt nature of storage and conversion devices creates a mystery to the method. They are used and relied on as part of everyday life. However, commonly the mode of operation is ignored as it appears too complex. The final work aims to explore and understand the use of binary as a form of visual storage. By applying the principles of digital binary technology into manual hand work, we are able to understand both the workings and outcome of binary conversion. Thus through the use of handwork we have empowered the digital process.
