With the mass of images that we are bombarded with today, learning about photographic theory its applications has been super helpful to media literacy! I know we’re all online but it’s really eye-opening when you actually go deeper

I’m a big art lover but photography is one of my blind spots so I love this whole thread for recs!!
Bresson was always my dad’s favorite photographer and I love his use of cheeky humor and the composition of his images. The historian in me loves peering back into daily life in such a candid way, they almost feel like stills from a Goddard movie.

📚This is a book of interviews with 12 pioneering artists who create photo books. It’s a long discussion about two of my deepest passions: photography and bookmaking. I found it because of the curator David Campany, and it is a must have for those who take their photography seriously. The most visceral interview is with the photographer Larry Clark, who talks about getting sued by the grandparents of a baby he photographed, leaving out pictures of sawed off shot guns, and his commitment to never making his friends look bad. There’s a lot of passages about book design, a range of photography styles, and the meaning of success. This book is a gold mine of insight, and I carry it with me like a bible.

My dad always invites me to his fave rock bands’ concerts that happen to be in town, and honestly i know so few of them but I always say yes. sometimes I brush up on the discography but more often than not I just kinda raw dog the experience. Like tonight, we saw IQ and wow, the guitarist was actually ablaze he was so good.
Sometimes it’s nice to just accompany someone to something they really enjoy. you Might end up enjoying it too!!!
I have, every time.

🎛You invite your closest pals, task them with bringing one of their best vinyls, and a bottle of wine. You drink, you listen, you vibe
