Bibliographical note
This essay was inspired by my work with the video artwork Close to Nature, which I made for an exhibition in northern Finland in 2011. Close to Nature is an examination of mediations in relation to nature. The work is based on the juxtaposition of a lo-fi domestic media device with ideas about landscape representation. A version of the work can be viewed here: http://vimeo.com/44951079It was also exhibited together with other works under the name Transmutations of Nature. More info:

An early version of this essay was presented at the workshop Digital Cameras as a Nexus in Everyday Life as a part of Helsinki Photomedia Conference 28-30 March 2012, Helsinki, Finland. I am grateful for all the comments I got during the workshop, especially the ones by Karin Becker.
