A Quote for Saturday (Paul Graham)

Yes, I have dissatisfaction with classic documentary language. It was wonderful when it was invented. But it has to be alive, to grow, develop, just like the spoken word. We don’t speak the same way we spoke in 1938 or 1956, so why should we make pictures the same way?

    The cultural landscape which visual documentarians seek to understand has changed so much, even in the last 20 years.
