The British Journal of Photography #7925

The British Journal of Photography is the worlds oldest and longest running photography journal. Through the lenses of world-class photographers, BJP explores rich and timely stories of art, culture, politics and society.

In this issue: Ghost in the Machine

Framing photography not as a neutral tool, but as a technology shaped by human intentional and machine logic, BJP reflects on the agency shared between people and devices, and considers what photography reveals and what spectres it leaves out of the frame. Highlights include: Lisa Barnard's new work You Only Look Once, Curator Alison Weaver on the uncanny at the heart of AI, Johny Pitts explores the "innately haunted medium" of the Duppy camera, Åsa Johannesson becomes a "human-machine hybrid" queering technological hierarchies, the utility of images in Ukraine within the new media, drone, and art evolution of war, and Rehaf Al Batniji reflects on her once-tranquil workspace in Gaza, now completely destroyed.
