Join Jeffery and Bill on a walk down the National Mall in DC as they discuss the Dorthea Lange and Rothko shows at the National Gallery and cut to the quick on the meaning of life, this time, in person! French Vietnam War photographer Catherine Leroy is Photographer of the Week.
Bill spends hours digging midi data out of a 17 year old file to open up a box that already had a bow on it. Also, should you cater to the camera or let the camera cater to you? All this and 80’s-90’s fashion photographer David Seidner is our Photographer of the Week.
Bill regales Jeffery with stories from his “Sleep No More” experience this past weekend. Which of course leads the two of them into discussing communications within an organization and deciding when you’re old enough to just be yourself, regardless of what other people think. The recently passed Elliott Erwitt is again our Photographer of the Week.
Does the way we learned to use the tools we use hold us back when those tools inevitably change under our feet? The Apple TV+ series “The Supermodels” teaches us a lesson on the value of a good subject and the role of collaboration as tool for improvement. At the end Bill throws in some musings on the musical Merrily We Roll Along that’s currently on Broadway and asks Jeffery to weigh in on what it all means. Larry Fink, may he rest in peace, is our Photographer of the Week.
Memories, nostalgia, and where to draw the line. How our representations of ourselves on the internet change over time and how we define what it is we are to the outside world and how you can’t control how they see you. Ben Lowy is our photographer of the week.
Listen to us zag into a technical episode where we discuss Apple’s new M3 processors, Adobe’s new noise reduction system in Lightroom, how good the new 24MP iPhone photos are, the cool technology that led to a new Beatles song in 2023, and where to start in a lighting kit. British photographer Brian Griffin known for his 1980’s album covers is Photographer of the Week.
A conversation of the impact of your mood on your work, especially photography leads to us diving back into our brains in an attempt to rewrite the memories of our past through photographs. Architectural photographer and meme-master Simon Devitt is our Photographer of the Week.
Bill is back from Paris so it’s time for some deep thoughts on fear, pain, and the present. Plus a story about getting lost in a French library that could have been a Star Wars matte painting. Korean photographer Cho Gi-Seok is photographer of the week.
Bill’s headed to Paris on a jet plane, so we’ve got a short one for you today. The recent story of the demise of Moog synths (again) gets us talking about brands and gear and whether the tools being made with art and intention effects the results you get from those tools. Skate and music photographer Glen E. Friedman is Photographer of the Week.
We start by discussing retro lens recreations, take a ride on a bus, and then decide that ending at a different place than your goal is often the whole point. Miniature set photographer Marius Sperlich is our Photographer of the Week.
