I warmly recommend those who can read French or Spanish to read his book 'Le baiser de judas' / 'El beso de Judas'.

En 2013 estaba prevista la construcción de un superordenador que superase las capacidades computacionales neuronales de un cerebro humano. (De momento, la predicción se retrasa.) Hacia 2049, un ordenador que costará menos de mil dólares superará la suma de las capacidades computacionales de toda la especie humana.

El beso de #fontcuberta se ha convertido en una especie de meeting point de turistas dispuestos a tomarse la foto de rigor y seguir su ruta sin pararse a saborear la obra. Un reflejo del tipo de turistas que invaden la ciudad.

Identity (Joan Fontcuberta Fugitive Identities)

I am approaching this project as me, not as a photographer. Although the image quality is extremely important I am navigating the narrative by feeling and its importance to me.

The sense of identity runs deep within this work. Having grown up in Cornwall and experiencing many of my formative years there I have developed a relationship with the place that is truly unique to me. I will not be able to grow up anywhere else, my one chance at adolescence was spent there. The way I am, my philosophy, everything about me is due to this place and its people.

Although the subjects I have photographed are mainly strangers we still share something. We both live in the same area, we will have mutual acquaintances, gone to the same shops, walked the same paths, driven on the same roads, breathed the same air, maybe even been in the same room.  

In Joan Fontcuberta’s ‘Fugitive Identities’ he writes on graffiti as identity. I interpreted this as graffiti being an artists attempt at expressing their-self. This is the same premise as my project, although I am not defacing public property or painting large scale colourful pieces, I am choosing to express myself through place. The places in which I photograph mean something to me, they are all important and significant in my upbringing. So by photographing them and presenting them to others is my form of expressing myself. Although it is a documentation of a place, it is a documentation of a place that I feel is part of me. 

There are many notions discussed by Fontcuberta in this piece of writing but I found that there was a continuous theme of ‘situated self’. An attempt to resolve questions such as “who am I?” It is extremely important to ask these questions when carrying out a photographic project such as this one I am currently undertaking, but also important to resolve this visually also.
