punctum

Tanımlar (İngilizce)

1. isim A sharp tip of any part of the anatomy; a point or other small area.

   “Thus, from what has been stated, we see that neither the white puncta nor the minute white branchwork of lines were ever tubular.”

2. isim A neume representing a single tone.
3. isim A detail in a photograph that captures the viewer's attention and evokes an emotional response or personal connection beyond the intended subject.

   “[…]the punctum is something that is seen by the viewer, without it being shown to them by the photographer. As such, it functions, according to Fried, as an “ontological guarantee” (553) of a given photograph’s nontheatricality.”
