Why collect images?
What is the role of collecting in the context of contemporary social networks? Do public collections from social networks merge to create a communal collection that we contribute to, but also get lost in? How does digital collection alter analog collection? While images inherently connote visual experiences, different sensations can often cause pictures to emerge in the mind. How, then, do collections of various sense experiences reinforce or deconstruct this paradigm? For artists, researchers, and academics, collections exist as a form of epistemology. How do collections function as tools for these practitioners today? The artist collects images that manifest in installations and assemblage. The scientist relies on the collection and interpretation of empirical data to verify innovative hypotheses. The academic curates collections in order to weave strong arguments.
