This video focused mostly on photographs ability to deceive. This is a concept people do not usually consider, because photographs provide an exact replica of what is in the viewfinder. His argument dealt with how small of a window a photograph allows someone to see. In reality the photographer could be selectively choosing what to take a photo of, in order to display an event in a certain way. Most people just accept photographs as truth, he brings up an interesting point by challenging that notion. This video relates to the current project because we are basically composing our own view of reality, using photographs. The project completely contradicts the idea of photographs a truth, because the images become something so abstract.
