 In 2009, the Three Gorges Dam will have flooded hundreds of square kilometres in central China. Chinese artist Yang Yi will see his hometown, Kaixian, being submerged during the last phase of the project.  Have you heard of Kaixian? It’s a charming tourist site if ever there was one! But to visit, you’ll have to replay it, since the town is now under the waters of the Yangzi.  Thanks to the growing popularity of digital cameras, with their direct connectivity to computers, the number of images sent by e-mail and of photographs published on the network has been growing exponentially.

Since it was invented, photography has evolved constantly. The portfolio presenting some of Ginette Bouchard's work published in this issue of CVphoto, as well as Carol Dallaire's in issue 32, provides me with a pretext to reflect on the orientation toward a new technology.
