The 2026 Photography Ethics Symposium was jointly organised by Photography Ethics Centre and photographies. The online panels were hosted by The VII Foundation.
As part of the 2026 Photography Ethics Symposium, this panel examines photography in the digital era. It considers the ethical and political implications of shifts in digital technology, particularly in relation to questions of authorship, agency, and representation. Hosted by Dr. Tammy Law, this panel invites a critical reassessment of how images operate within—and are transformed by—these evolving environments.
Dr Ozan Yavuz explores AI-generated photography in Turkey as a form of counter-discourse, exploring the role of anonymity in practices of resistance. Avishek Ray brings algorithmic imaging and posthuman ethics into focus, placing algorithmic imaging at the crossroads of aesthetics, knowledge production, and ethics.
