Abstract
'The Realm of Lost Virtualities' was exhibited as part of Brighton Photo Fringe 2014 (BPF14). This was an interactive work consisting of a live website that people could upload their “lost photos” to, and a semi-autonomous printer situated in the gallery that would then print out every image that was received.
“Imagine how many photographs we all have in our cameras, on our computers and in our smartphones that we will never do anything with. Maybe they’re just slightly less perfect than the ones you took preceding them, or perhaps there’s that all-too-easy-to-do, finger-in-front-of-the-lens? The Realm of Lost Virtualities asks you to upload your bad photos and give them the potential life they deserve…after all, it’s not their fault the flash didn’t go off!”
