He was clearly prolific, resourceful and much-travelled, this is reflected in the thousands of photographs and negatives he left to the Courtauld after he died.<\/p>\n<p>Photographs themselves have an agency\u00a0that goes beyond aesthetics, not just in the way they interact with the world,\u00a0but in the way they change it. Creating photographs alters the way we perceive the world: photographs are not only a commentary, but they are also a component of the world. We have, therefore, altered the world with the action of capturing it in photographs.<\/p>\n<p>Photographic images become new objects in the world, objects that affect and influence their perceiver and prompt new action. The vast number of photographs in this collection led me to create a list of proposals to maximise public engagement (see appendix at the bottom of this post for the full list).<\/p>\n<p>One of my proposals is to make a puzzle game using Anthony Kersting\u2019s photographs:<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_678\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-678\" style=\"width: 1598px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-678\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/files\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.48.48.png\" alt=\"A screenshot of an online slide puzzle created using one of AF Kersting's images\" width=\"1598\" height=\"1068\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.48.48.png 1598w, https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.48.48-300x201.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.48.48-1024x684.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.48.48-768x513.png 768w, https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.48.48-1536x1027.png 1536w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1598px) 100vw, 1598px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-678\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Anthony Kersting slide puzzle example. <em>This sliding puzzle game can be accessed via this link- <\/em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.proprofs.com\/games\/puzzle\/sliding\/afkersting-statue-in-pariament-square\/\">https:\/\/www.proprofs.com\/games\/puzzle\/sliding\/afkersting-statue-in-pariament-square\/<\/a><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Anthony Kersting was an agent who was actively and constantly taking photographs in the world.<\/p>\n<p>Most of his photographs focus strictly on architecture, and Anthony Kersting seems to have been committed to eliminating human presence by scheduling shoots at times when tourists and passers-by would not be expected.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_679\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-679\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/files\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.53.01.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-679\" src=\"https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/files\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.53.01.png\" alt=\"AF Kersting black and white prints.\" width=\"600\" height=\"408\" srcset=\"https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.53.01.png 1482w, https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.53.01-300x204.png 300w, https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.53.01-1024x696.png 1024w, https:\/\/sites.courtauld.ac.uk\/digitalmedia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/26\/2020\/02\/Screenshot-2020-02-10-at-19.53.01-768x522.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-679\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">KER_PNT_H17365 and KER_PNT_H16964.

The images contained in these two boxes felt deeply human. I was also left wondering: why did Kersting want to take photographs of the people here, when he doesn\u2019t seem so interested in capturing people elsewhere?<\/p>\n<p>Often, the best photos are not taken but given by the subjects, when subject and photographer are equals. In the end, a photograph is only a photograph when it meets with a spectator.

Inspired by Peter Liversidge\u2019s book Proposals \/ 1997-2005 (Belfast: Ormeau Baths Gallery, 2005, in an edition of 500). <\/em><\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>I propose that users are able to access the archive photographs in various interactive online formats. This way, users might watch the photographs as though they were actual events, rather than observing them passively. The game should be called Knowing Anthony Kersting.<\/li>\n<li>I propose making Anthony Kersting\u2019s photographs into puzzles. These can be organised by content and difficulty levels. Next to the puzzle, a description should provide the context of the photograph, or reproduce the back of the photograph with Kersting\u2019s handwriting with his detective-like description of the context of the information about the photograph.<\/li>\n<li>I propose linking all the photographs together and making them into a VR experience.<\/li>\n<li>Users could learn how to type or improve their touch-typing skills by copying AF Kersting\u2019s handwriting on the back of his photographs, and completing the typing within a certain time frame. (See the typing practice game- Kingsoft TypeEasy).<\/li>\n<li>I propose to make a drawing game, either on a flat computer screen or inside a VR simulator. Users would trace all of the outlines of the photograph [using a mouse or, in VR, a controller]. Once finished outlining a photograph, individuals can save their drawings without the photograph on the back. Or they could have choices, draw from the photograph, make the photograph next to it, make it into a digital drawing session. When the drawing is done, there could be pop-ups or animations of the content. Also, a social space where individuals can share their works too.<\/li>\n<li>A painting or mind map using Kersting\u2019s photographs as inspiration. An exercise focussed on transforming and interpreting photographs, turning them into other things, thinking about issues that are beyond the photograph.<\/li>\n<li>A travel plan based on all the places Kersting visited, showing mostly street photography and architecture sites, and linking to personal photographs of those places. This project could be named \u201cHow much land do I know\u201d.<\/li>\n<li>Looking at his images felt like we were sneaking around together, \u201ccommitting crimes\u201d. The idea would be to replicate the shots of locations devoid of people.<\/li>\n<li>A Snake Game on Google Maps, tracking all the places in which we have been to, with individual players as the snakes, when we reach every destination of Anthony\u2019s photographic descriptions, we get a point and we can also track how big the avatar Snake has grown.<\/li>\n<li>We could map out all the places that he has been to in Google Maps and explore those places with 360 virtual tours on Google Earth, and make a film out of it. Travelling around Europe while being in the house.<\/li>\n<li>Using the portraiture that Kersting took in Jordan to retrace his steps and try to find out who those people are or were.<\/li>\n<li>Come back to the Courtauld another day and volunteer in here, focussing on Anthony Kersting&#8217;s collections especially.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<hr \/>\n<p>Yuhong Wang<\/p>\n<p>Courtauld Connects Digitisation Oxford Micro-Internship Participant<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Anthony Kersting was an expert photographer of architecture.
