Waltzing in Now-time is an interrogation of my motives as digital artist and as collector of old photographs. Within this I situate my art practice as corresponding to certain writings on technology by Roland Barthes, Walter Benjamin and Marcel Proust. I begin by looking at Barthes's notion of the necessarily real aspect of photography, which emphasizes that the photographic subject must have existed at the moment of exposure. It is this existence that allows the viewer to make a connection with certain photographs. Thinking about the photograph as a trace of the original subject and not just a technological reproduction, I draw a connection to Benjamin's concept of the aura, looking past the standard interpretations of this phenomenon. Linking Benjamin's aura to his concept of now-time, I propose a valuable coming together of a past with a present, based on the auratic experience of time through photography.

520 $a Concentrating on the intersubjective experience of the aura in photography, I look at two passages from Proust's Remembrance of Things Past in order to explore the different possibilities for technologically mediated perception. The intersubjective relationship I speak of is not dependent on the viewer having a personal history with the photographic subject, but a personal investment in it at the time of viewing. Given this, I also explore the possibilities for remembering that result from interaction with anonymous old photographs.
