Elliott Erwitt interview

Elliott: No, everybody is a photographer and that’s going to continue to be. It’s very seductive. But by the same token, everybody who has pencil is not necessarily a fine writer. It doesn’t mean you really have to know that much to get a picture. I mean, photography is not brain surgery. It’s not that complicated. It’s easier now than it was before, but before it wasn’t that hard. It was reasonably easy. It’s not the ease; it’s what you do and how you do it and how you construct your life and your vision.

A fantastic read to round the week off.

...which I am now reliably informed is not a new product, even though it's only a concept! This silicon film was premiered back in 2001. Thanks to @alkchan.

Wall Mounted Box Prints Polaroid-style Instagr.am Photos Remotely

brilliant. reminds me of the bedside table that also printed your instagrams. My only concern would be that the Zink printer might need constant monitoring - mine gets very lo-fi very quickly! Still, would love this.

Revolog — special effects 35mm

Film with light leaks, textures, colours and more already built into each frame. Interesting idea. I guess it would technically give you lomo-style shots even if you were using a 'perfect' camera.

Colour Twelve

the colour twelve is a small, independent zine exploring experimental photography, focussing on the aesthetic of failure, blur, saturation, medium destruction and their relationship with subject.

the zine is published online and is available for free download.

A lovely little zine that celebrates lo-fi photography. And it's free!
