1. Although photography has a long and well-documented history, more than 180 years after the first photographic image was made, “we still do not know what photography is” (Kember 175). One might ask how this can be true, when nearly everyone in the developed world and many in the developing world have created photographs; furthermore, most lay photographers would likely argue that they know exactly what photography is: a technological means for recording the world as seen. However, Kember’s provocative point is true in many ways because photography “is a complex technological network in the making rather than a single fixed technology” (Larsen 142).
