This is a fairly old one, from a few months after the camera was built. An artist friend asked me to document one of his rooms, he was into installation and sculpture at the time. I agreed on the condition that I had complete freedom in how the documentation was done.

This was the second time working with this model, and she is one of the very few models I’ve worked with for whom the time shift effect has properly ‘clicked’. No direction required, just time and play. The blanket-waterfall stuck.

Scanned top to bottom in about two minutes.

When can we expect to see your work on display at MoMA in NYC?

Hah! Thanks, I’ll let you know! Maybe I can set up some guerilla style exhibition in a nearby alley 😂

Use a large format x-y printer installation (temporary) attached to the wall to print using an actuated rattle can?

Good ifra, unfortunately my engineering skills stop at desk-sized

This one is excellent! I feel like the woman needs to be larger somehow; like maybe adjust the cropping. But everything else is framed so well. I don’t know, just ignore me.

Thanks! I appreciate the feedback. I don’t crop shots done with this camera, I want to preserve the organic borders and learn to live with what is captured without messing too much with it.

However, I halfway agree with your observation, on a small screen this really could do with a tighter framing, or maybe bringing the model closer to the camera. But in a larger print (this is one of two shots Ive printed in 80x80 cm), the airy composition works really well.

I refuse to ignore you!
