This entry: Photography is examined. The next Cultural Autopsy, CA003, is focused on “Photography”. It has been a long time coming, honestly.
The way this piece, that I am writing, is turning out shows … No proves that I knew in my gut before I knew logically.
I just didn’t want to believe what my gut was telling me.
Organic connection takes time. Full stop.
Now, this may seem obvious to you. It was not for me, well not in the way that I explore “Photography” in my third Cultural Autopsy that I publish on Substack under @thecakeisstillalie (Rose & Vye).

Under observation: Both are appealing externally
Upon closer inspection: Both are made of distinctly unique material.
The close: “It is unwise to judge a book by its cover” - Public Cultural Colloquialism.
Archives are written by the Victors.
