Paul and Rachel’s latest project ‘The Present History’. A reflection of Sean Cubitt’s connection between digital photography and the processes used in printing in his ‘Genalogies of Light’ talk at CCP. An explaination of the project from the ‘The Present History’ website.
The Present History is a grand attempt to create a book which is beautiful, sad and hopeful. It combines contemporary digital culture with the traditional craft asthetic of book binding and finishing. It looks at our past with respect for our achievements and yet grief for some of the the actions that led us here. Together we have also let ourselves imagine what the future might hold in this life and the next.
