## Entropy This week, we’re chasing the quiet poetry of decline, decay, and disorder. Your challenge is to document the slow unraveling of structure — the inevitable shift from order to chaos. **In the street, nothing is permanent.** It’s in the surfaces. In the street messaging. In the tension between what was and what remains. **Entropy tells stories.** Of time passing. Of decay — and the tension between resilience and fragility. Of human effort against inevitable nature. Of care and neglect. Repair and ruin. Memory and erasure. **What to look for:** * Peeling paint, cracked concrete, crumbling brick * Rusted gates, corroded metal, rot, and patina — texture! * Nature reclaiming the manmade — growth through fences and walls * Closed shops, empty lots, forgotten corners * Visual metaphors — a fraying rope, a collapsing box, a weak lightbulb * **People existing within these spaces** **And don’t ignore the fading voices of street messaging:** Literally information breaking down. That’s entropy in its purest form. * Torn posters layered into abstraction * Half-erased graffiti and peeling stickers * People navigating past walls of posters * Safety warnings sun-bleached into near invisibility * Slogans fractured by wear and weather * Weathered shop signage missing characters * Words dissolving into texture **Tips** * Get close — textures are everything * Use light to emphasize cracks, erosion, and shadow * Look for contrast between old and new * Try black & white for a timeless, moody feel **This isn’t about ruin porn.** It’s about awareness and observation. Respect for time and was once and what remains. Finding beauty in places overlooked. **This could be treated as still life's or the human relationship with these special surroundings.** Entropy is not the end. It’s evidence. **MEET-UP DETAILS:** TIME: 3:00 PM LOCATION: **YAU MA TEI MTR D, STREET LEVEL** ### **REGROUP AT 4;30 PM:** NOT JUST COFFEE MAN HOO COURT, 448-452A NATHAN RD, YAU MA TEI Please stay a while to share your experience, thoughts, and maybe some images while grabbing a drink (or more). **AFTER ALL THIS:** Please post 5-10 of your images from the shoot (depending upon turn-out). And PLEASE, be a participant in commenting on other images. Gut reactions and general comments are always welcome. Comments can be subject-related, but better are those that address image-making. It's part of the process and valuable for your fellow photographers. Remember to be considerate of a possible wait list, and be sure to mark "won't attend" at least 8 hours before the shoot if you sign up and need to drop. Repeat offenders will be dropped from the group.

When judging morality, should we prioritize **intentions/duty** or **outcomes/results**? It introduces two influential philosophers as representatives of these approaches. * **Immanuel Kant (deontology):** An action is moral when it is done from **duty** and follows rational, universal principles (the **categorical imperative**). Certain acts—like lying—are wrong regardless of the consequences; you can’t do a wrong thing for a right reason. * **John Stuart Mill (utilitarian consequentialism):** The morality of an action is determined by its **effects**, specifically how much **happiness/well-being** it produces. Mill argues that some pleasures are “higher” than others, and that good intentions don’t redeem harmful outcomes. ## Discussion Questions 1. **The lying dilemma:** A murderer comes to your door and asks if your friend is hiding inside. Kant would say you must not lie. 2. **Can good intentions rescue a bad outcome?** 3. **The organ harvest problem:** A surgeon has five patients dying of organ failure and one healthy patient in for a checkup. Killing the one to harvest organs would save five lives, and the math works out for the utilitarian. Why does this feel so deeply wrong? Is that feeling a point in Kant's favor, or just a bias we should overcome? 4. **Do rules need exceptions?** Kant insists moral rules must be universal, with no exceptions. But most of us can imagine extreme scenarios where any rule seems like it should bend. Does the need for exceptions fatally undermine deontology, or is the strength of the system precisely that it refuses to bend? 5. **Who gets to calculate the consequences?** Utilitarianism asks us to maximize good outcomes, but we're notoriously bad at predicting consequences. If we can't reliably know the results of our actions, is it practical to base our entire moral system on outcomes? Does this uncertainty push us back toward rules and principles? 6. **Everyday morality:** Think about a real moral decision you've made recently, even a small one. Did you reason more like a Kantian (what's the right thing to do in principle?) or more like a utilitarian (what will produce the best result?)? Do most people naturally lean one way? 7. **Justice vs. the greater good:** A town can prevent a deadly plague by sacrificing one innocent person. The greater good is clearly served. But is it just? Can an action be morally right and deeply unjust at the same time? 8. **The big synthesis question:** Are these two systems actually opposed, or do they often arrive at the same answers by different paths? Is it possible that we need both: rules to guide us in the moment and consequences to evaluate systems and policies over time?
