Pascal Dangin article

I like how he incorporates other fields of study into his works and considers them a foundation--computer science, art history, anatomy are all important and definitely give substance to his works. I liked his requirements for hiring—the quiz and anatomy/life drawing classes—because that sets a good standard for quality work in his field of work.

I also like how he embraces his work as an art form, not just a mechanical process. He is also very mindful of his client’s intent, which is interesting because usually the focus is on the artist’s own intent on their works. I agree about his stance on having content/purpose behind action, although sometimes the best things come from just pure experimentation. Overall, this was a really fun and interesting insight into a career profile of Pascal Dangin and the growing field of digital photography.
