Not to mention there will be far fewer non-processed photos. Most people won't care, but it just seems like nothing we see anymore is real.
- shajznnckfke 6y agoIn between the thing and your perception of it, there are so many layers of bending, stretching, reflection, quantization, imputation, and filtering, occurring through different physical, digital, and biological processes. Why does this one make the image not real?

I am now imagining a science fiction story where visitors to Earth initiate communication with us using faint arcs of light across the night sky. No one notices and the telescopes and cameras filter them all out. The visitors go home, sulking.
