poDcast 15

Continuing the theme of citizen journalism, this week's podcast explores the democratic development and implications of digital photography.

Welcome to the openDemocracy's poDcast.

This week we debate the development of digital online photography, from the proliferation of home snaps to citizen journalism to the ever increasing power of the service providers prioritising and selecting what we see.

Leading digital photographer Pedro Meyer talks to openDemocracy about the current state of photography and democracy. You can join the debate on the oD blogosphere.
