POLADROID MAC SOFTWARE
This is what happened with Poladroid, a nice little software by developer Paul Ladroid which wants to give new digital life to polaroids. Poladroid: an exact imitation of a vanishing technology The original image – a hut in the Swiss Alpsĭigital media tend to imitate things of the real world as if there were no difference. And with them, a photographic method vanishes more and more, inspiring the unique aesthetics of photographers like Ansel Adams. This forced Polaroid to give up producing the films.

However, technology moved on, and pictures from digital cameras were even more instant. This was called an instant picture, pointing to the biggest advantage of this method compared to other technologies needing more time. Omitting the first d tells you what it is about: Polaroid, the famous camera producing paper with chemicals which turn into the taken picture in a couple of minutes, like a miracle. This is what happens with the software Poladroid, which is available free of charge for Windows and Mac.

Like Barthes experienced it while watching an image of his mother and recalling his memories, these moments return later in order to become present again. Now, not only the moments being captured by photography pass by, but also the means to do so.

This is what Roland Barthes called the ça-a-été ( it has been), considering it as one of the basic characteristics of photography. Photography always reminds us of a time which is no more, but has been once.
