Abstract

This chapter explicates the core “clones” of non-photography. It examines non-photography’s critique of the photographic myth of photography; the status of photographic images in relation to the Real; the “stance” of non-photography; Laruelle’s “science” of photography, and finally Laruelle’s non-photographic ethics of human universality.
