Any thing is extended out there. Only the mind cannot extend itself out there (even though it seems to us that all our thoughts are extended, and reach and cover the totality of reality). The mind is a useless construct. Useless… unless we relocate it within its original and proper domain: Memory. The mind is Memory. I won’t say anything about that insufferable lover of res extensa, analogue photography; but about digital photography I can vouch that it documents nothing but the mind – Memory’s memories. Hence the digital photography apparatus will always be an indispensable tool to those who want to extend out there what happens to be inside the black box.
