Now that I have learned just enough to be dangerous with the gradient tool in Photoshop, I am now more sure than ever that Caleb Carr was right when he wrote, "information is not knowledge." That has probably been for me, one of the most profound statements of the digital age. We can never again believe in what we see as any image can be expertly manipulated by just about anyone. How do people determine what is true today in the absence of Google and Wikipedia? Makes we wonder how kids today go about constructing what will be their worldview.
But doesn't my dog look too cute, though?
