Photograpy as an everyday practice is changing dramatically one again. At this moment of transition from analogue to digital, digital Snops aims to develop a new media ecology that can accommodate these changes to photography 'as we know ti'. Expert contributors representing varied disciplines demonstrate how and to what extent the traditional social practices, technologies and images of analogue photography are being trasformed with the movement to digital photography. They zooom in on typical, vernacular, everyday practices: the development of the family photo album from a physical object in the living room to a digital practice on the internet; the use of mobile phones in everyday life; photo communities on the internet; photo-booth photography; studio photography; and fine arts' appropriation of amateur photography. they esplore how this media convergence transforms the media ecology - the networks, objects, performances, meanings and circulations - of vernacular photography, as they research it through ordinary people's use of such new cameras and interactive internet spaces as part of their everyday lives.
