Beyond Human Measure: Eccentric Metrics in Visual Culture
Original language description
The chapter outlines a genealogy of the history of photography seen through issues of scale and measure; it asks how this history is entangled with questions of aesthetics such as scales of the sublime. Moving in and out of specific genres such as scientific photography, the chapter relates the implications of the gigantic, the immeasurable and the disproportionate to practices such as astronomy but also as ways to re-narrate the media archaeology of photography.
