Talk at Fotografiska NYC

Apologies for the low image quality, the event organizer accidentally saved the images as low res jpegs.


I’ve always been interested in human behavior - why we do the things we do, what triggers certain decisions etc. Unfortunately for me, I have the concentration span of a five-year-old so going to college to study behavioral psychology was never my thing.

Instead, I began using my camera and eventually technology to document patterns that I found peculiar, funny, strange, and interesting. I did a talk at Fotografiska NYC about how I use photography and technology to create awareness around our strange human behaviors. And tried to answer questions such as:

Why did model homes built for the new middle class in emerging economies all look the same?

Why do most of us only capture images of extraordinary moments when 99.9% of our lives are made up of boring, mundane ordinary moments?

Why do almost all photos on Instagram feel like variations on the same image?

What makes us capture a moment in a certain way?

What will your images look like if there was an app* that prevented you from repeating your previously captured images?

*Turns out there is one.
