BlemishedEye Mobile Images Accompanied By British Composer, Edmund Hunt’s Music
We were delighted when David Booker aka BlemishedEye contacted us last week with news of this wonderful project that he had embarked upon with British Composer, Edmund Hunt. David contacted Edmund last year to ask if he might consider creating a piece of music to accompany some of his very special images. The result is quite spectacular. David explains, “After familiarising himself with my photography, he obliged and in early January 2014 sent me a short composition entitled ‘Ungelic is Us’ (a line from the Old English poem Wulf and Eadwacer, meaning ‘it is different for us’). This video is the resulting collaboration”. Edmund’s work has been played in the UK and…

It’s an online iOS magazine for iPhone and iPad that showcases artwork of various finger painters from around the world. Four issues have been published so far and a fifth seemingly was intended to be published in June 2013 but I cannot see it. The latest issue ‘Bunny and The Beardman’ features John Bavaro discussing a collaboration for a museum that turned into ‘something unprecedented’. Other issues include work by Paul Vera Broadbent, Fabric Lenny, Matthew Watkins, Nettie Edwards and many more. Take a…

A brand new iOS mobile photography magazine has landed in the Apple Newsstand (there’s been a few recently) and is ready for download. We were lucky enough to be sent a Press Release from the Editor-In-Chief, Knox Bronson more widely known for the popular mobile art website – P1xels—The Art of the iPhone. Coming from the print industry as Editor of many photography titles, with years of experience of both National and International publications, of course this was of particular interest to me. I viewed the Preview issue of this monthly title. The preview issue is a sample and smaller version of the regular monthly issue and it includes content…

Sixteen artists’ works were selected and these then went to a public vote. Finally the top three were determined and their t-shirts auctioned off for charity. The charities were to be determined but recently it was annouced that Edyta Lipinska a most talented mobile photographer/artist was experiencing very difficult and expensive health issues. A fundraising appeal on Facebook has been announced to help her and Steve Cooper from The Hungry Ghost has decided to pledge the entire amount to this organisation. We all wish…

The Iron Books – a new iPhone Photography Exhibition in London
The Gasoline Rooms are proud to host the visual and textual work of Andreas Philippopoulos Mihalopoulos. The Iron Books is a series of thirty material poems that trace, photographically and textually, the posthuman condition. The works originate in Instagram, shot and written instantly without editing. They are here transposed onto metal books that oscillate between the fleeting and the monumental. The Iron Books are iPhonographic and philosophical poems erupting with fear, desire, sexuality, vulnerability, geological angst, and the displaced sense of property and belonging of the posthuman era. The show is curated by aKwamarina. A limited edition publication designed by Sakis Kyratzis will be on sale. The specially commissioned soundscape on…
