Although I wish I could claim otherwise, I drew this before our most-current age of Truthiness (thank you, Stephen Colbert).
All those years ago when I first saw a photographer alter a photograph with Photoshop, I wondered what in the absence of photographic proof would become the baseline for truth? I’ve lived long enough to have my answer.
Now, on this July 4th, amidst the collapse of civil dialogue, the dearth of shared values, I wonder in the absence of any baseline for truth, how long before truth circles around and catches up to us? Of this I am sure: Photoshop will be of no use.
[Doesn’t it just make you think of Yeats? The best lack all conviction, while the worst are full of passionate intensity.]
