In this episode, Wendy Ewald, Susan Meiselas and Laura Wexler - three of the co-authors of 'Collaboration: A Potential History of Photography' – delve behind the scenes of their groundbreaking book, exploring the genesis of the project and its ambitious aim. They offer up an alternative understanding of photography as something that is inherently collaborative, and explore the countless complex relationships between photographer, subject, viewer, camera and more. This wide-ranging conversation spotlights a revolutionary experiment in portraiture by Frederick Douglass, questions the fixed nature of history, and celebrates where ‘the human spirit collaborates with the camera'. 'Collaboration' is also co-authored by Ariella Aïsha Azoulay and Leigh Raiford.

In continuing our research on the history of photography, Stacy fills us in on the life of Louis Daguerre. Credited with inventing one of the first forms of photography, Daguerre would go down in history as a scientist who brought the worlds attention to this new concept. Using iodine, mercury vapor and a highly polished silver plate, Daguerre was able to not only capture an image but keep it from disappearing. This would springboard the development and bring photography to the masses. Not only was Daguerre an inventor, he also created many details diorammas and was a phenominal painter and sculpter of light.  If you enjoyed this episode please consider becoming a guest sponsor!

Those innovations never really stopped as images went from being captured physically to being captured digitally.

Confabulating with Dr Sloan Mahone Associate Professor of the History of Medicine Faculty of History | Centre for the History of Science, Medicine, and Technology Dr Mahone specializes in the history of psychiatry and the psychological sciences in Africa. I have extensive experience in East, Southern and Central Africa, dating back to the Peace Corps in the Democratic Republic of the Congo (then Zaire). Her recent research has focussed on East Africa, particularly Kenya and Zanzibar. Her current project deals extensively with photography and visual sources, particularly related to neurology and psychiatry. She also teaches and supervises in the history of Global Psychiatry; the Psychology of Religion; and Gender and Sexuality. Research Interests History of Medicine and Psychiatry History of Photography Psychology of Religion At present, She is completing a project on the history of psychiatry and photography in late colonial Kenya. The monograph looks at the turmoil of 1950s Kenya as told through a unique photographic collection taken by a Canadian psychiatrist who ran the mental hospital in Nairobi during the Mau Mau war. This is an unusual approach to a history of psychiatry – opting to follow the trail of a physician photographer as he encountered healers, prophets, patients, and prisoners during the most tumultuous period in Kenya's modern history. This project has become as much a history of photography as a history of medicine with the use, re-use and misuse of the images themselves an integral part of the story. Her next project, now in the planning and preliminary field site investigation stage, is a comparative history of epilepsy and neurology across Africa. She currently teaches: Masters: Methods and Themes in the History of Medicine Graduate Research Forum in History of Science, Medicine & Technology Political Economy of Health and Medicine in Africa Historical Approaches to the Psychology of Religion

Jacques Henri Lartigue was largely unknown as a photographer until the age of 70. Born in Courbevoie to a wealthy family, he took up photography about the age of 7. Some of his most famous photographs were made as a teenager. His subjects ranged from auto-racing to aviation. Lartigue's use of action in his photographs set him apart from many photographers of the time. After the family money started running out in the 1930's, Lartigue spent the next 30 years making a meager salary off of his paintings. He had a few photographs published in the 1950's, but it wasn't until the 1960's that his work was shown to John Szarkowski at MoMA in New York and he became known as one of the great photographers of the 20th Century. Lartigue was near 70 by the time this happened. Book shown in this video: Jacques Henri Lartigue http://amzn.to/289mCRy Also recommended: Lartigue: Life in Color http://amzn.to/289nfL4
