On memes, mimetic desire, and why it's always that deep

news.ycombinator.com Caitlyn Clark 2026-03-01 21:23:52

When filmmaker and scholar Hito Steyerl wrote her manifesto “In Defense of the Poor Image” in 2009, internet memes were only in their infancy. But in the years since, the meme has become the dominant form of the poor image — “an illicit fifth-generation bastard of an original image.” Of the poor image, Steyerl wrote: Altogether, poor images present a snapshot of the affective condition of the crowd, its neurosis, paranoia, and fear, as well as its craving for intensity, fun, and distraction.

Dancing Naked on the Head of a Pin: The Early History of Microphotography

news.ycombinator.com Unknown 2026-03-02 06:08:57

To produce microphotographs en masse, Dagron used a long wooden box that contained, at one end, a glass negative of the image to be reduced. At the other end was the reducing camera with up to twenty-five small lenses and the sensitized plate. When the end with the negative was held to a light source, the image was projected into the lenses and onto the sensitized glass plate to create multiple positive transparencies, each measuring about two millimeters square. Dagron employed the Taupenot dry
