I loved the article about futuristic textiles. I thought the name was very appropriate. It was exciting to me to see people dreaming, and working to fulfill dreams they way they were in this article. If we lose the ability to dream we lose it all. I particularly loved the idea of the interactive mat for physically challenged children to use for games and other amazing uses. The thought of gear for warfare that makes soldiers undetectable would be an incredible asset to our military. The idea of photo manipulation in this article is no big deal since you were trying to depict futuristic possibilities. Thank you for keeping all of us updated on things that have not, but could come about. I loved the article.

A photograph becomes altered when some aspects are not real, when the size of the object doesn't march the distance between that object and the Photographer, the type of lenses used in capturing the image it can all be as a result of the creativity/imppression of the Artist(Photographer). Manipulation goes too far as soon as some extra professionalism is involve that's being extraordinary. Playing with colours artificial lights and as well as creating fictional scenes.

Digital manipulation of photographs opens up tremendous scope for artists. Mostly manipulations are used to dreate surreal effects or to shock but there are surely more imaginative uses. As far as objective photo journalism is concerned there is a danger that deliberate maniplation of images can be used to obscure the truth. I don't think this can be prevented, deliberate falsification will be uncovered eventually but we should all be sceptical in respect of all news stories.

Today I finally got time to read my May 2003 issue of National Geographic. And I came across the "digital debat." I read each little letter and I think that all those writters are stupid to get mad over some silly picture. I mean who seriously, besised a five year old, is going to think that goats can hang from the cealing by spider silk coming out of their BACK!? I think it was a cool picture and it didn't harm anyone!!!!!!!!!

I can rarely tell that a photograph has been altered unless there is an obvious flaw. Manipulation goes too far when the dignity of the subject is denegrated.

Although digital manipulation of images is considered by many to be incorrect, we must consider that the manipulator can in some ways be considered an artist. It is only when the manipulator attempts to make profit or gain prestiege directly through the manipulation that we should take offence. let me clarify that. If a p[erson takes an image, or several images, and manipulates them digitally to form something they admit to be new, then that is art. But if a person creates a forgery through manipulation and then attempts to make a profit by claming it to be unedited (a picture of the Loch Ness Monster for example) then that is both immoral and unethical.

I believe this in not eithical not is a part of the natual evolution of any species. We are manipulating life to suit are egocentric needs. There is something terribly wrong with this morally too. I can understand genetic research and use of alterting cells, whatever to help others live or ti improve their quality of life if there is a physical or mental need to do so - but to use genetic selection and cloning - any of to further our selfish needs as a society of supposedly human beings is beyond comprehension to me.

Digital alteration of photographs or other images could itself be considered a form of artistic expression. However, full disclosure of the altered nature of the image should be an ethical imperative, if not legally required. Further, any altered image, whether done digitally or otherwise, should be considered fraudulent if it is used to prompt the viewer to take an action that would not have been taken upon viewing the unaltered original image.

To me it's a credibility issue. If you alter, that is, if the published image doesn't precisely "map" to the camera original, or it does map but in some way deceives, for example, by depicting a blond as a brunette; if the nature of the image and/or alteration makes it conceivable I won't immediately realize I'm looking at an altered image; and if you don't plainly and unambiguously alert me to the alteration and/or deception, your credibility is at great risk. If I ever learn you've ever altered an image in some non-obvious way and not told me about it, I will never again "trust" your imagery in the way I think you'd like me to.

I have to agree with Mr. Caylor. If the artistry is the manipulation of the image, then you can only judge that when you know the image has been manipulated.

With the ability for computer manipulation of images ; I feel you should insist on using only photo-emulsion slide or negative photographs. I realize many professional photographers use digital media but, the temptation to enhance a photo is sometimes almost overwhelming. If the fact that a photo has been altered is CLEARLY indicated then the artistry may be appreciated .

As far as I am concerned every photo is an artistic product, except photo's that depict a political event or any other factual theme. So artistic photography can use any alteration, but "news" photo's must be kept unaltered.
