Fashion photography of yesteryear

Fashion photography of yesteryear 01/11/2004 10:29 PM

The Decline of Fashion Photography; An argument in pictures. Inspired by Karen Lehrman's photo-essay about the poor state of contemporary fashion photography, I went looking for vintage goodness. Louise Dahl-Wolfe and Irving Penn are two of the photographers she mentions, but it would be a shame to miss (to name a few) Frances Pellegrini's, E rwin Blumenfeld's, and Herman Landshoff's contributions to the genre.

Boomboxes of yesteryear


Boomboxes of yesteryear 04/27/2004 01:45 AM
Once upon a time, there were no iPods. This online museum offers images of boomboxes from the 1970s and '80s. A look back at music technology's humble roots, "when the idea of a personal stereo experience was a bit of a novelty." Serving suggestion: Crank up the volume on your PC and listen to this totally free teaser clip of "White Lines" by Grandmaster Flash and Melle Mel while you're browsing these amazing images of old-school funk-delivery systems. Fun, baby.

CSI: Photography


CSI: Photography 09/24/2004 09:55 AM

Reader John R. Bennett of Savannah writes:

You may find this unbelievably uninteresting and more suitable for a dusty corner of digital photography blog, but I'm curious about it:

This week I watched both "CSI:NY" and "CSI Classic" (Or whatever they call the Las Vegas jurisdiction). I noticed the New York crime scenesters appeared to be using Olympus digital cameras, while their colleagues out West seem to be rocking the Nikons. Not sure what's going on in Miami. Probably those Panasonic/Leicas.

At any rate, while it's certainly understandable for different law enforcement agencies in different states to use different vendors for equipment, did CBS and Jerry Bruckheimer actually strike different product placement deals for the different CSI franchises? I'm obsessed.

When "CSI: Topeka" debuts I'm guessing they'll be outfitted with that oddly named Pentax DSLR.

Anybody have any idea? Which is the camera of the true crimefighter?

Readers chime in after the jump.

Make it stop

It's a cold, dark night when you're walking home and you hear some music that sounds vaguely familiar. You walk towards it. You realise that it's Madonna's "Like a Virgin" coming from the speakers in front of a store window that has mannequins dressed up in clothing that you burned in a ritual to cleanse your soul and your wardrobe of the 1980s a decade ago. You realise that two-tone jeans, big hair and ripped sweatshirts are coming back. You have fear.

Domes and Cupolas From the New Yorker: "David Stephenson's photographs gaze directly up at the interiors of domes, flattening them and - through long exposure times - revealing details and colors that can't be discerned in normal viewing. The results are bright, kaleidoscopic patterns made up of the Moorish arabesques of the Alhambra, the iconic decorations of a former imperial chapel near Moscow, and the cool, almost Mediterranean blues of a Hungarian synagogue." Stephenson's work is curre ntly on exhibition in New York. Other pages of his work can be found here and here.

David Pescovitz: SeedfaceI love Fortean Times's online gallery of strange photos and illustrations. Along with antique spirit snapshots, stigmata statues, Bigfoot, and dervishes, they have a nice selection of "simulacra photos." In Fortean terms, simulacra photos depict "spontaneous or natural figures or images. These can occur in nature as well as in the chance conjunction of artefacts." For example, the seed capsules of snapdragons in this photo. Readers are invited to send in their own shots to the print magazine's Simulacra Corner. Link

OQO Hype Back In Fashion


OQO Hype Back In Fashion 05/26/2004 04:28 AM
Ok, I lied. A few hours ago I wrote in the comments that I wasn't going to write any more about the OQO device until an actual product was shipping. However, seeing BusinessWeek's insane gushing over the company, it seemed reasonable to chime in. Remember, the OQO is up there on the list of vaporware products. The idea was to build a fully functional computer inside a portable box that was only a little bigger than a typical PDA. It was first announced more than two years ago, with specs and features it doesn't seem to have these days. They promised it would be under $1,000 and would come with various "docking stations" like a laptop docking station that you could pop it into to turn the OQO into an immediate laptop, if that was needed. Now, they're saying it'll be $2,000 and there's no talk of the docking stations. Of course, while OQO has been able to get all the hype, many other companies have been working on very similar devices, including Tiqit, IBM spin-off Antelope, and Paul Allen's Flipstart. The one thing all of these systems have in common is you still can't buy one. All of them have been working at offering such a device for years, and every few months there's another flurry of news stories about them as if it's some big new idea. Sure, they all of have funky prototypes (I even got to play around with the Tiqit device two years ago) that are very cool, and which I'm sure people would find quite useful - but until we can go out, plunk down our money, and get one of these tiny computers, can the press please lay off on the mushy stories about how wonderful they are?

David Pescovitz:  Images Drum300 The new issue of the still-excellent Bust magazine has an interview with Loretta Lux, a German artist living in Ireland whose surreal photographs of children are so spookily sweet that they're hypnotizing. According to the Bust article (not archived online), Lux won't reveal her specific Photoshop techniques except to say that "the images are compositions of photos superimposed over painted backgrounds, then finished off with digital alterations." Her online gallery is just stunning. When I have a child, I'd love to commission Lux to photograph him or her every year. Link

"Jill Greenburg is an accomplished celebrity photographer. Recently, though, she's turned her attention to another biped: monkeys. She discovered her affection for monkey portraits on a commercial, and started renting various species of trained primates and taking their photos as if they were A-list celebrities. The portraits express an amazing range of emotion, and are way more interesting that your average celebrity pic."
