Photographers who've never watched Black Mirror should start with this episode

A man with his eyes closed and a device on his forehead sits in a chair, with translucent images of people and a street scene superimposed in front of him.

Look, I get it. You're a photographer, not a sci-fi nerd. You've got better things to do than watch some British bloke's fever dreams about evil robots taking over the world.

But here's the thing: if you haven't watched Netflix's Black Mirror yet, you're missing out on the most brutally honest mirror (pun intended) of where our profession, and society in general, is heading. Not to mention all the references to it that are gradually creeping into people's conversations, which may well be going over your head.
