| Why should we only do things that produce some sort of value? Do we really want to reduce all of human existence to increasing profits? |

| You said "value" and "profit". I said "useful". |

| What’s a better method for determining how to utilize and distribute resources? To determine where energy should be used and where it should be moved from? |

Most of the shots never get printed at all. I do it because I enjoy the act itself, of knowing how to make an image frozen in time look a particular way by tweaking parameters on the camera, and then seeing the result. I furthermore enjoy the fact that I could achieve the same result on a dumb film camera, because I spent time learning the fundamentals. |
