Link Roundup: Sea of Boxes Edition
I live! Covered in cardboard and crumpled-up newspaper, I rise from the ashes of my recent move, digital camera in hand. My new place has a lot less in the way of square footage (cozy) but a lot more in terms of location (spectacular) and ceiling height (waythehellupthere). I am excited.
But you don’t care about all that crap, you want links! And links you shall have:
- Kodak’s “Winds of Change” Video - An old internal promo for Kodak digital cameras that got so popular it was released online and went viral. I crack up every time I watch this guy.
- Researchers Develop UltraThin Compound-Eye Camera - I spend far too much time looking at future toys and strange cameras.
- Top Five Tips for Better Photographs - Remember the long list of ‘Top 5′ photography lists? Didn’t have time to read it all? No worries, I did. This is my favourite.
- Fire Water @ icebin.net - Only four images, but wow.
Passed around as unattributed creative art photography; I strongly suspect it’s just CG(confirmed as digital art by Jhayne). Either way, it’s impressive. - Rwanda Testimonies by Adam Natel - Stark portraits of murderers and victims from the Rwanda genocide. The emptiness of the backgrounds is what stands out to me.
- Dreams of Flying by Jan Von Holleben - Simple but incredibly creative photography of children. Giving the whole world a quarter-turn and using the ground as her backdrop, Jan takes photos of kid’s imaginations.
I’ve still got more stuff to clean and unpack before tonight’s movie night. I better get working…

I’m glad you finished off with that Dreams of Flying link. Those Rwanda Testimonies had me disgusted with the human race and despondent. Those fire water pictures are superb.

I considered saving Jan’s work for next weeks post, but I really didn’t want to end on such a massive downer.

Post has been updated to reflect new info on “fire water”.
Jhayne’s informed me that the four shots are the work of a digital artist and were linked on BoingBoing and Neatorama waybackwhen.
StumbleUpon is awesome, but doesn’t always provide decent context ><
