"The photographic image is the purest because it simulates neither time nor movement and confines itself to the most rigorous unreality. All other forms - cinema, video, digital images - are merely attenuated forms of the pure image and its rupture with the real. The intensity of the image is equal to its denial of the real, to the invention of another scene. To turn an object into an image is to strip it of all its dimensions one by one: weight, relief, aroma, depth, time, continuity, and, of course, meaning. It is by dint of this disembodiment that the image assumes its power of fascination, that it becomes a medium of pure objectitude, transparent to a more subtle seduction." - Jean Baudrillard, "The Lucidity Pact" (p. 97)
