520 _aBurbridge delivers a provocative critique of how photography functions under capitalist systems, highlighting how much labor—both visible and invisible—is embedded within photographic culture today. He expands the notion of photography to include not only the act of taking images, but also the technological infrastructures, platform regimes, laborers (like moderators, smartphone assemblers, content managers), and socio-economic forces that support it. In doing so, he argues that to understand contemporary photography is to understand capitalism, and he looks for sites of resistance where photographic practice might help reimagine or subvert exploitative relations.
