Welcome in Simen Johan's world!

Simen Johan's photography

and his unique technic...

By parasitesdontlisten, February 24, 2012


Merging traditional photographic techniques with digital methods, Simen Johan creates each of his images from as many as one hundred negatives, having first constructed or discovered each element and photographed it on film. Across his body of work, the viewer is urged to ponder the relationship between the real and the artificial or imagined. In his photographs, the Norwegian photographer explores darkly the human proclivity towards fantasy and our attempts, knowing or otherwise, to craft alternate realities for ourselves.

Cinemagraphs

the other side of photography...

If you haven't seen these animated gifs by Jamie Beck and Kevin Burg yet, you are in for a treat. These aren't your run of the mill early 90's gifs, they're more aptly called cinemagraphs by their creators.The idea for cinegraphs came up when the pair was preparing for Fashion Week. They wanted to tell more of a story than a single frame but didn't want the hassle of creating a video. For more details about these awesome images, read the articles on Gawker and My Modern Metropolis. Don't forget to check out the rest of their amazing work on Tumblr and Oh so coco.

Weird celebrity portraits

portraits of Martin Schoeller...

By parasitesdontlisten, February 08, 2012


New York-based photographer Martin Schoeller loves to make us laugh! Take a look at his celebrity portraits of everyone from Quentin Tarantino to Chris Rock and you'll notice a common theme running throughout his work. They're wonderfully wacky!
Having worked as an assistant for Annie Leibovitz from 1993 to 1996, Schoeller has the guts to create dramatic scenes that call for his subjects to work outside the box. He's been a staff photographer at The New Yorker since 1999 and his work has appeared in magazines like Rolling Stone, Esquire, Vogue and Vanity Fair. No doubt it's his unique flair that captures our attention and has us eternally wondering what he's got next up his sleeve.

Dentsu: paint sound sculptures

"Dentsu: paint sound sculptures" for Canon Pixma

Magnificent paint sound videos and stills..

By parasitesdontlisten, December 20, 2011

The creative studio dentsu, teamed up with a photographer linden gledhill to create this series of paint sculptures using sound vibrations. The series was part of a campaign for canon's pixma ink printer brand. The photographs and videos begin by wrapping a membrane around a small speaker. Ink drops were placed on this membrane and the speaker was turned on. Once it began to vibrate the ink begins to jump up and down, high-speed video cameras and still cameras were used to capture this including circling around the sculptures to see them from all angles, experimenting with different sounds and frequencies created the various pieces.
