With Michael Wood and Julie DuBose
Opening the Good Eye: The Mechanics of Seeing focuses on developing the basic skills that we need to clear our minds of the filters, associations, and The Basic Prejudices that we all have, the likes, the dislikes, and the ignoring of what we consider unworthy of attention.
This is not strictly a photography course. It is about developing a state of being and a state of mind that is free of conceptual preoccupation. Only then can we have an experience of fresh, unconditional perception. And then we can use our camera in a simple way to express our perception precisely as it is seen.
Classes involve discussions about student experience of visual exercises done daily during the week between classes, as well as image viewing and discussion of assignments. The course involves photographing assignments during the week between class meetings, as well as daily practice of the visual contemplations.
