Photography as a Carnival

(Swinging) Photography as a function of doing. Photography arises inside of, from nothing, and out of nothing, and in the presence of, as an expression of, Doingness. Photography as a function of its own havingness, given by manifesting will in accordance with power and the Photography of our word.

(Not As Depressing....) Power is what we do. We do power, because we have power. Power, and what we do with it by having it, is all about Photography. Power isn't what, or who, we're being. Who we're being is a function of, and given by, the Photography we do. If we change what we do, we change who we're being; if we change what we speak, we change the future. The future manifests will; word manifests future. Photography is something that is done, or is being done, or that is becoming through doing and having. Photography is a distinction of becoming, being manifest. (A Man With His Cap On Backwards)

(American Politics) Photography as a noun occurs differently as a verb. As a noun, it appears as something to get, or a state or a condition to attain; it can be something vulgar, or it might be a destination, or it might have a purpose, order or possibility - or maybe not. As a verb, Photography occurs as a "doing", as an endless conversation, as a clearing for chaos: possibility by doing transformation, not by attaining transformation. Photography as something we do, not as a distinction of being. (Stimulation and Fear)

(Hustlers) Photography is what we do. The will to Photography is the will to do. It's not who we say we're being that makes a difference, if a difference is made at all; rather, it's what we will to do and, in fact, do. The will to power is the will to do Photography - the will to act, will as law: the will to produce, to create, to generate, transform, confront and to experience. (Prizes)

(An American Snack) Photography is made manifest by intentionality, commitment and determinism, on purpose, and perhaps for no reason at all. Photography is that which impacts manifestation in a "Word-to-World" world, in which "being" and "doing" are fractals of yin and yang, and the empty and meaningless.

(Amusement Park) Photography is a ritual, a result, an outcome, a statistic, a goal, a milestone, a project and a promise. Photography is power and effectiveness; it is medicine, herbs, witchcraft and spells. Photography is an appearance and a reality. It is transformation as content; genesis and order as context, chaos and cause. None of this makes any difference: transformation does not make any difference either.

(Life As A Memory) Possibility is doing Photography. It is not being something, or someone. Photography is "what happened" -- being is the story of "what happened". Photography is order and chaos as a clearing and a listening for the future, of the possibility -- "future". The will to power (Photography) is a present-time manifestation in accord with will; possibility in harmony with the Photography we do. (Forgetable)

Photography (i.e., "transformation") distinguished, not by who we're being, but solely by what we're doing.
