roy_snell 002

In his series Last One Out, Please Turn On The Light photographer Richard Nicholson captured some of the last remaining professional darkrooms in London. Its a great insight into the work habits and work areas of different people. Most of the contents of these photos will be completely foreign to most in a few short years.

Creepy Sculptures from Patricia Piccinini and Santani

Well, in today’s searching of the internet, it seems that creepy sculptures are the item of the day.

Patricia Piccinini

The first artist, Patricia Piccinini, is from Australia. Her ‘characters’ are striking and frightening, but somehow still seem to posses tender, lovable, human qualities. There are more pieces to check out on her web site. Patricia Piccinini

Santani

Pieke Bergmans – The Light Bulbs


Pieke Bergmans – The Light Bulbslightblubs2

A series of unique crystal lamps by Pieke Bergmans, with Royal Leerdam Crystal and Solid Lighting.

You may wonder: What is a light blub?? The answer is simple: it is a light bulb that has gone way out of line. Infected by the dreaded Design Virus, these Blubs have taken on all kinds of forms and sizes you wouldn’t expect from such well behaving and reliable little products. Nevertheless, they seem to be enjoying their new free existences. They can be found shining across Milan during the Salone Del Mobile 2008.

The Light Blubs are a series of crystal lamps, designed by Pieke Bergmans, in cooperation with Royal Crystal Leerdam. The lamps are all unique handcrafted crystal pieces, equipped with leds by Solid Lighting Design.

New Cinemagr.am App and Cinemagraph.com

This is a little test i did with the Cinemagr.am app on my iPhone.
Its a very cool little program that allows you to create an animated gif from a short video sequence.
its pretty amazing what this app is accomplishing; complicated video composites on a phone, INSANE.

Created with cinemagr.am

email me your cinemagr.ams {rkunkleman(at)gmail.com and ill post them up (eh, why not?)}

This app is based on the cinemagraphs done Jamie Beck and Kevin Burg.

Gotta love this first shot of Bill Cunningham

Mark Tipple – Underwater Photography


envelops10

There’s been a lot of activity surrounding Seth Casteel’s underwater dog photography. It piqued my interest and i started hunting for some more sub-surface photos.

These photos are from Austrailian photographer Mark Tipple.

Mark Tipple has emerged as a notable documentary photographer over the past 3 years. Having worked closely with organizations seeking social change in Australia and surrounding countries, his progression has seen the development of Gallery For Justice; a not-for-profit aiming to empower story telling through fine art prints documenting issues of social justice.

As the principal photographer of The Underwater Project; an ongoing reportage showcasing Australia’s relationship with the ocean, Mark aims to connect the three areas of his work to bring light to stories traditional media shies away from.

Mark’s clients include Edify, The Salvation Army, Christian Surfers, House With No Steps, Beyond Water, The Guarani Project, Nanda Dian Nusantara Foundation, and 100Revs.

His work has appeared in publications worldwide such as The Australian, The Telegraph, The BBC, G1.com, The Independent, National Geographic and De Morgen Magazine.

here’s a little video from the project as well.
