Visual stuff (primarily photographic), sonic stuff and other things. Welcome to my sketchbook. 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

📌 United Kingdom
Picked up contacts and a test print from the lab. All looks very soft - not sure about the my Mamiya Press camera at all. Seem to remember most was shot on 1/15.

I’ll give the camera a good clean and try again with a faster shutter. The perils of buying used gear…

I’m a big fan of Chris Dorley-Brown’s photographs of London.

There’s a Kickstarter for his new book, Near Dark. Think I’m going to treat myself.

Lovely stuff.

Seems like a great opportunity to mention Albert Frey and the Palm Springs Visitor Center (a former petrol station).

This photograph of Brent Reservoir is really doing it for me right now. Keep having to go back for another peek. Think it’s the volume of information.

Anyway, it’s by Edmund Clark is showing at Photo London until Sunday. I’d not planned on going but the FOMO is real.

Peter Iain Campbell - We Drift Like Worried Fire

A fascinating study of North Sea drilling rigs, production platforms and decommission sites.

Wouldn’t it be nice if one day, we could look back at this work with a sense of nostalgia (if nostalgia’s the right word?)

Marc Wilson: Travelogue 2 - A thousand days of longing

Photographs made in Ukraine before the Russian invasion. Accompanying text describes the ordeal of a family during the ongoing war.

There’s an incredibly personal feel to this book.

Spent a month in Detroit back in 96, exploring the city and its Techno scene. Used a FujiGW670 for these.

Joel Sternfeld - American Prospects

This book completely changed the way I thought about photographs. Sternfeld's work is fascinating and inspiring.
Still my favourite book by my favourite photographer.

Made it to Leigh Bowery! at Tate Modern today. Would recommend ✅

Got to the age where I have to punctuate days out with comfy seating.

I’ll confess, I’m Bowery-curious. The exhibition at Tate Modern (27 Feb-31 Aug) looks great. DEFINITELY going. Photo by Fergus Greer.

Khotin - Beautiful You

Finally got my hands on a copy. Not often I’d describe records as gorgeous, but this one I would.

Shout out to @invertedaudio.bsky.social Arrived perfectly packaged - the record itself lovingly wrapped in black tissue paper. Cute.
