John Nack on Adobe: Video: The creators of Photoshop look back (and forward)

After 20 years, Adobe Creative Director Russell Brown sits down with Photoshop co-creators Thomas & John Knoll as well as original Photoshop PM Steve Guttman. If nothing else, check out the 1990 demo (from a much hairier Russell on the morning talk circuit) that kicks things off.

Wow! Blast from the past, the guy who’s arguing against being able to manipulate images is Fred Ritchin, he was a professor of mine (and my senior thesis adviser) at NYU, albeit about six years after that appearance on Good Morning America.

Ed Hamlin: Foster is a liar. He has eliminated one stream of content requiring a budget (paying a photographer for his work)for one that doesn’t require a budget (doesn’t pay anyone since people are willing to give it away for free). Citizen provided content is not journalism. Unless they are rewriting the definition of journalism in Webster’s. What a shame.
Ed Hamlin: May be a possibility, however it make me feel like I am giving away what I do. How about a car mechanic discounting what he does by 90% and then keep a roof over his head. People don’t value photographers like they do other industries. So what someone can snap an accident scene or other event that will be in peoples mind for a few minutes. How about their ability to see a story and create it visually. How sensitive are other photographers to the subject of very low pricing for what they do?
Chicago Photographer: Hard to believe that Kodak who basically invented the digital camera was never able to capitalize on it’s products. It’s patents are worth tons of money, but it failed in producing products that used the technology
Tammy Winand: very beautiful & serene scene…Asian art has always appealed to me
