Giving outrageous visual form to nothing: An interview with Daniel Rubinstein

This interview with Daniel Rubinstein was conducted by Bernd Behr and Andrew Fisher over the summer of 2024. It marks the point at which Daniel resigned his editorship of Philosophy of Photography , which he co-founded with Andrew in 2010. The interview covers these events and their relation to the genesis and the continuing development of Daniel’s intellectual project. Since the 1990s, his work has sought to bring the critiques of representation developed in continental philosophies to bear on the understanding of photography, especially in light of its transformation by networked digital imaging technologies. The interview explores these questions in relation to various publications, with a special focus on Daniel’s 2023 book How Photography Changed Philosophy (Routledge).

Abstract

This interview with Daniel Rubinstein was conducted by Bernd Behr and Andrew Fisher over the summer of 2024. It marks the point at which Daniel resigned his editorship of Philosophy of Photography , which he co-founded with Andrew in 2010. The interview covers these events and their relation to the genesis and the continuing development of Daniel’s intellectual project. Since the 1990s, his work has sought to bring the critiques of representation developed in continental philosophies to bear on the understanding of photography, especially in light of its transformation by networked digital imaging technologies. The interview explores these questions in relation to various publications, with a special focus on Daniel’s 2023 book How Photography Changed Philosophy (Routledge).
