The New Yorker writes up one of my favourite iPhone apps, Halide, and goes into depth about the aesthetics of phone photographs. Cue the Brian Eno quote:
Whatever you now find weird, ugly, uncomfortable and nasty about a new medium will surely become its signature. CD distortion, the jitteriness of digital video, the crap sound of 8-bit—all these will be cherished and emulated as soon as they can be avoided.
