ndlr: Image from the brilliant photo essay Social Workout (must see) by Six N. Five

Visuals only?!

Predicted years ago that we were embarking in the ‘age of images’ meaning that our communication currency would become exclusively visual. Marco Simonetti did a photographic essay on that topic.

_______

The only way to ‘decipher’ what the image is about is by capturing its Q-R-Code. If you don’t – you (and I) will judge the ‘story’ based on our subjective sensibilities and values.

Take time to view the project. Isn’t this a brilliant social essay?

Pastel university?

Pastel university? Why not! Exceptionally captured by Ludwig Favre – a Fine Art Photographer.

_______

He specializes in major cities and landscapes – architectural assignments as well as personal projects and philanthropy.

_______

Excellent interview to read (and more photos to see) on Bricks magazine.

Sing-Sing

Sing-Sing teamed up with Sagmeister & Walsh to design and shoot this new campaign for Aizone, with wild optical illusions, and the best crew in the world.

_______

Gotta love the high contrast colors of flat 2D meets 3D staging decor. Ohlala the eccentricity of it all.

Multi-dimensional

Lee Mawdsley is a multi-dimensional photographer with a dazzling array of projects.

_______

He captures breathtaking indoor / outdoor architecture (manufacturing to museums) as well as details of human tasks that elevate craftmanship of all kinds.

_______

Nothing beats staging to get perspective. I encourage you to do so for your personal projects.
