There is a constellation of blogs out there, particularly in the Tumblrsphere<\/strong>, chucking out content onto the web, whose sole purpose seems to be seeking to define what that strange word actually means. Cool. We can’t claim to have the answer to the question any more definitively than anyone else. But there’s something about creativity and poise. Something about achievement and ease with ones self, the world and its creations – that somehow gives meaning to so loose and vague a term.<\/p>\n

The secret, of course, has also to do with the way this way of being in the world is presented. The way a person or a thing is photographed makes a heap of difference to the way that image is perveived and consumed.
