Everything is Everything....i totally agree. What you are i must be?
However in my view connecting the the dots is not all that important. If everything is everything there must be something joing them. Alot people are just interested in connecting the dots to how the over all picture looks.
...Buit look more closely look at those dots. Look at how and why those are connect and being connected.
I think the future is not going to be about the bigger picture. It is going to be about the microcosm picture. (it will eventually form the bigger picture)
So while everything is everything, how you pervice it and how i precive everything will make world of a difference.

As always, I enjoyed your column?, but, like you, worry about the demise of print journalism and all it's ramifications. As Garland indicated, change happens and we have to adapt.

Our times demand this: change and adaptation. In the film, "The Neverending Story," everything was being eaten by The Nothing, a mamouth entity that went around gobbling everything up. After many trials, the hero saves the threatened Fantasia. In the end, everything that was gone came back. Let's hope the newspaper industry is like that.

We do appear to be approaching a tipping point. Many of my colleagues appear to be taking a "head-in-the-sand" approach, focusing on doing EVEN MORE of the same in the hope of cruising through the apparent crisis. I thought it was just me but I am increasingly aware of more top name journalists and photojournalists writing and being interviewed about this topic. Giving "voice to the voiceless" is all very nice but is anyone listening?
To present ever present topics of humanitarian and/or social issues in new and refreshing ways is, I am convinced, the only way to continue working in photojournalism AND actually providing benefit to the subject, not just benefit to my own career.
