Photography, Expanded

There are some really interesting labs happening in New York this spring that deal with issues and ideas relevant to the changing landscape of documentary photography and photojournalism. They're presented by the Magnum Foundation and seem worth looking into:

One deals with collaborative projects that engage subjects in the work, another explores the power of data mining, digital security and audience engagement, and the final lab looks at interdisciplinary collaboration to enrich projects. We owe it to our subjects and our readers to find innovative ways of telling stories that will resonate and hopefully make a difference.

With that in mind, I'd like to make this a thread about how you or your colleagues are doing that.

Start with this great piece by Ashley Gilbertson about the contested South China Sea:
