More From Marshall McLuhan

Anthropology... has always been highly dependent upon photography... as the use of still photography - and moving pictures - has become increasingly essential as a part of anthropological methods, the need for photographers with a disciplined knowledge of anthropology and for anthropologists with training in photography has increased. we expect that in the near future sophisticated training in photography will be a requirement for all anthropologists. (1962)
Photography Moving Training
I don't know if anyone has noticed but i only ever write about one thing: being alone. the fear of being alone, the desire to not be alone, the attempts we make to find our person, to keep our person, to convince our person to not leave us alone, the joy of being with our person and thus no longer alone, the devastation of being left alone. the need to hear the words: you are not alone.
Writing Joy Desire
Photography is very subjective. photography is not a document on which a report can be made. it is a subjective document. photography is a false witness, a lie.
Photography Lying Made
I have problems with a lot of photography, particularly street photography and photojournalism - objectifying the other, finding the contempt and exoticism that you might feel within yourself or toward yourself and projecting it out to others. there can be an abusive power to photography, too.
Photography Might Objectifying
Photography today is accomplishing a lofty mission in which every german should collaborate by buying a camera. the german people is ahead of every other in the technical domain and, thanks to its exceptional qualities, the small camera has conquered the whole world... much is at stake here from the point of view of popular consumer goods and, furthermore, photography has a particularly important political role to play. (addressing the berlin photography fair, 1933)

The history of photography needs clearing out. it needs something else now. because photography always acknowledged there were cameras before photography.

Making pictures is a very simple act. there is no great secret in photography...schools are a bunch of crap. you just need practice and application of what you've learned. my absolute conviction is that if you are working reasonably well the only important thing is to keep shooting...it doesn't matter whether you are making money or not. keep working, because as you go through the process of working things begin to happen.
Photography School Simple
People are always trying to find the next groovy thing, and it hasn't gone back to painting... i'd like it to go back to painting. i'm sick of all this photography and video. there's so much of it, it's almost annoying.
Photography Always Trying People
A reader, encountering a sentence about a barking dog, would have to dwell on why that choice was made at that moment. everything in a novel is explicitly chosen, whereas some of what a film captures feels incidental, according to the vagaries of photography and sound recording.
Photography Dog Choices
Over the last few millennia we've invented a series of technologies - from the alphabet to the scroll to the codex, the printing press, photography, the computer, the smartphone - that have made it progressively easier and easier for us to externalize our memories, for us to essentially outsource this fundamental human capacity.
