Old-fashioned photography

As you may have noticed, all of the photographs on this site were taken on film (discounting screenshots of OS X screensavers, CGI, and video of course).

Why should anyone living in the 21st century still cling on to such an archaic form of image capture? Personally:

Totally Retro...

My creative side has been gradually becoming more and more bipolar:

On one side, I love new technology - whether it be digital video captured from a camcorder; pure computer graphics created in Blender/Quartz Composer; or simply digital stills caught from my PowerShot; or on the audio side perhaps some new softsynths or plugin effects running within Logic.

Oblique Strategies ScreenSaver (mac)


This screensaver for the Mac uses Quartz Composer to display a version of Brian Eno's Oblique Strategies. In fact, the text for the cards is read from an RSS feed, so you can make it say whatever you like...

I think I wrote this about August 2006, a short while after I got my MacBook.
