"As a photographic format, the light field camera doesn't really upset or replace Cartier-Bresson's foundational observation about photographic practice: making still images is a process of finding the right moment to hold still forever. There are more and less decisive images, but every photograph must contend with the crisis of choosing such a moment, whether by intention or chance," writes Ian Bogost, professor in the School of Literature, Media, and Communication.
