lately, i’ve been thinking/feeling into the relationship between order and disorder in both the natural world and the mystical. i recently made this handmade book study on translucent paper and cardstock as a way of grappling with some feelings that could not be named. “baptism” takes a series of stills from an internet archive video of ocean churning, and reimagines the frames as individual photographs, only distinguishable from each other when in movement. for me, the process of creating this little book has served as a meditation on ritual, religion, and finding form within the chaos of the world. though instagram doesn’t let you pickup the book and engage with it fully, i hope you enjoy some of these images.

I rarely show work. Mostly because I’m a bit of a perfectionist, but also because many of my projects are long and ongoing. When my friend @alyssamaespradley asked if I’d show some photographs for her zine release, especially ones that pertained to grief, I thought immediately of a more recent project that’s a bit of a departure from what and how I normally photograph.

These photographs, taken on my point and shoot Olympus, were made as both a formal and emotional exercise, documenting the process and fringes of moving. What emerged was a lot more. A meditation on what it means to belong to a place, loss in the face of the natural world, and the cycles of grief.

This project will eventually become a book, but I figured I’d take the opportunity to show this emerging work in collaboration with some great artists.

If you’re in Northeast LA and want to come by Thursday evening, message me and I’ll send you the info.

I moved recently, and getting set up in my new space has reminded me how much photography has the potential to be a living, moving art form.

The image itself is one thing, beautiful, held in time, grounded yet elusive. But the way the image transforms once it becomes an object in the world feels completely different.

I love the way Dayanita Singh describes that “the only way forward in photography is outside photography.” A controversial statement to some, but to me a freeing one. Photography belongs in the world and should be allowed to interact with it.

Anyways, here are some test prints taped to my window on a hot March day.

Przeglądaj historie na Instagramie w tajemnicy

Instagram Story Viewer to proste narzędzie, które pozwala na ciche oglądanie i zapisywanie historii Instagram, filmów, zdjęć lub IGTV. Dzięki tej usłudze możesz pobrać zawartość i cieszyć się nią offline, kiedy chcesz. Jeśli znajdziesz coś interesującego na Instagramie, co chcesz sprawdzić później, lub chcesz oglądać historie pozostając anonimowym, nasz Viewer jest idealny dla Ciebie. Anonstories oferuje doskonałe rozwiązanie do ukrywania swojej tożsamości. Instagram po raz pierwszy uruchomił funkcję historii w sierpniu 2023 roku, która szybko została zaadoptowana przez inne platformy ze względu na jej angażujący, czasowo ograniczony format. Historie pozwalają użytkownikom dzielić się szybkimi aktualizacjami, czy to zdjęciami, filmami, czy selfie, wzbogaconymi o tekst, emotikony lub filtry, i są widoczne tylko przez 24 godziny. Ten ograniczony czas sprawia, że historie cieszą się dużym zaangażowaniem w porównaniu do zwykłych postów. W dzisiejszym świecie historie to jeden z najpopularniejszych sposobów komunikacji na mediach społecznościowych. Jednak gdy oglądasz historię, twórca może zobaczyć Twoje imię na liście oglądających, co może stanowić problem związany z prywatnością. Co jeśli chcesz przeglądać historie, nie będąc zauważonym? Tutaj Anonstories staje się przydatne. Umożliwia oglądanie publicznej zawartości Instagram bez ujawniania tożsamości. Wystarczy wpisać nazwę użytkownika profilu, który Cię interesuje, a narzędzie wyświetli ich najnowsze historie. Cechy Anonstories Viewer: - Anonimowe przeglądanie: Oglądaj historie bez pojawiania się na liście oglądających. - Brak konta: Oglądaj publiczną zawartość bez logowania się na konto Instagram. - Pobieranie zawartości: Zapisuj dowolną zawartość historii bezpośrednio na swoje urządzenie do użytku offline. - Przeglądaj najważniejsze: Dostęp do Instagram Highlights, nawet po 24 godzinach. - Monitorowanie repostów: Śledź reposty lub poziom zaangażowania w historię na prywatnych profilach. Ograniczenia: - Narzędzie działa tylko z publicznymi kontami; konta prywatne pozostają niedostępne. Korzyści: - Przyjazne dla prywatności: Oglądaj zawartość Instagram bez bycia zauważonym. - Proste i łatwe: Brak potrzeby instalacji aplikacji lub rejestracji. - Ekskluzywne narzędzia: Pobieraj i zarządzaj zawartością w sposób, którego Instagram nie oferuje.
