Boyer stated, ”These images can make people believe in a reality that often does not exist.” What’s interesting is that this law would apply not only to the glossy spreads of fashion mags, but all press photographs, political campaigns, images on packaging, advertising, even art photographs. What do you guys think?

Dhobi Ghat Girl I’m the design lead for Paper, a new app from Facebook that lets you explore and share stories from friends and the world around you. Paper makes storytelling more beautiful with an immersive design and distraction-free layouts. Before joining Facebook I co-founded Push Pop Press, a digital publishing company that created Al Gore's interactive book Our Choice. Prior to starting Push Pop Press I helped design the Nest Learning Thermostat and worked at Apple where I designed user interfaces and artwork for the iPhone, the iPad, and Mac OS X. Recently I worked with the spanish shoe company Preventi to design a new line of shoes the Mike Matas Global Nomads. My girlfriend and I also run MyCookingDiary.com
