Despite looking some-what visually appealing, the concept doesn't relate as well as it could do to the essay as I do not discuss collage - I did have a paragraph in there about DIY Zine Culture (see bottom of blog post), and so at the time, this linked. Evaluating the synthesis of this idea at the developed point in essay writing, the link really should be on photography as apposed to collage.
"Alternative magazines and DIY Zines have been a byproduct of this evolution, taking the high quality fashion image off the pages of Vogue and onto the streets itself. Bill Cunningham, one of Manhattens street style photographic icon’s avoids pre-meditated photo design at all cost, shooting his subjects candidly as they are on the street. Unlike more formal ways of image making, Cunningham focuses on personality and life, personifying Guy Dubord’s idea of society as the spectacle [ref] and, engaging with an audience on a more human level than the likes of Avedon who focuses more on elite subjects.
