“Quero Sua Câmera Velha”

Campanha "Eu Quero Sua Câmera Velha"!

ThE mOnStEr PaLiMpSeSt!!!

ThE mOnStEr PaLiMpSeSt based on the "system control" concept, but goes much further.
The idea was to print one picture on a collage of many papers in the size 200x300cm, but this was too large, therefore the size shrinked to 100x150cm with 66 pieces of paper.
But the whole idea is too crazy, because in the theory it sounds good, but in practice it's hard to make.
I started to print the first ten parts of the collage, and of course I had fresh new ink cartridges, but the picture has got many green and red areas and because of this the color ink cartridge was soon empty for these two colors.
I'm very sad that I didn't get it, but I don't have the money to buy a dozen of fresh new color ink cartridges for one work.
I must put off this plan, but maybe one day I'll continue...

The Palimpsest-Error-Files! part2

Sometimes the photo and the paper or rather what is on the paper are a bad match.
Like the following palimpsests will show you:





"isso é tudo 1-5" with the pictures "naked street, but not a naked wall."

Some pictures from the photowalk.

Now some pictures of the photowalk last Saturday in Timbó.

There were many people who shot pictures of the landscape, the bridge and these things. But the most important thing for everybody was a big black bird which sat on a rock in the river.
Of course, in reason of peer pressure, I photographed this obligatory scene, too:

Aehm yes, the bird is there in the middle or...ah you know ;)

Okay, I made rather pictures of the folk who photographed there:













I used my Praktica LTL3 with the Revuenon Special 2.8/135mm lens and the Kodak Color+200 film and my Canon T50 with the Tokina 3.5-4.8/35-70mm lens and the Fujicolor 200.

DIY: A Panoramic Camera - Part 8

Yes, after nearly one year I continue with the ICA Project.
But for the moment just with a tripod for the panoramic camera.

I found a heavy tripod for a dumpy level in my tool shed. I think it's for a dumpy level, which is broken, because the tripod for my current dumpy level is in the case with the dumpy level.
But okay, now it's the tripod for my panoramic ICA.

The construction of the head of the tripod is a little bit different to the photographic tripods. But it's easy to fix the camera with a normal screw at the tripod:




Of course, I built a L-bracket for vertical shots:




The tripod is really heavy:

TOMORROW!

Here some pictures of the event.

system control. a concept.

At the beginning the "system control" concept was an idea for a palimpsest. But the print wasn't well, because the original paper, a circuit diagram for a hi-fi equipment, is in the DIN A3 size and so I printed first the left side and then the right side of the paper as DIN A4, but this was a bad idea.
Finally I decided to make a simple sandwich with the circuit diagram-paper and the pictures:

First version of the first picture:

second version of the first picture:

After this I made a photoshop montage with the pictures in two 40x50cm frames:

The assembly of the Fole Arte Exhibition.

Yesterday was the assembly and the vernissage of the Fole Arte exhibition.

It was a cool and smooth vernissage with live music, experimental movies, my pictures, many funky folk and good talks! Therefore a cool evening! I wanted to shoot some analoge photos of the vernissage, but I think I shot only ten pictures...

But of course before this was the assembly ;)
