05.19.12 Inksurge: Design Talks @ Ayala Museum
Art date with Jethro Jamon! ♥ There will be more of these. (We wanted to sit in the front being the geeks that we are, but apparently those are reserved for important guests. Sad face.)
YAY. ♥ That’s okay, Alla. One day, we shall become important people too. Or maybe even the ones giving the talk. HAHA.

New York City was a blur of polarizing Puerto Rican & Dominican grilled chicken, heavenly Tiki hip-hop and Harlem history lessons, courtesy of a certain Azealia Banks. When not paving her own path to super-stardom, Azealia can be found horsing around the bodega, surrounded by swarms of wolf-whistling onlookers, knee deep in a (sometime one-sided) discussion of early house, whose sparse beats backdrop her particular brand of filthy rhyme. It’s hard to tell if she is profound or just profane, but there is no certainly no doubting her cleverness or cultural relevance. Enjoy the video, as well as the rest of the photos, which can be found after the jump.

Time-lapse Portrait by Nerhol - part of a series called Misunderstanding Focus. (courtest of COLOSSAL)
The numerous portraits are actually different photos, photographed over a period of three minutes as the subject tried to sit motionless, the idea being that it’s impossible to ever truly be still as our center of gravity shifts and our muscles are tense. The portraits are actually a layered lime-lapse representing several minutes in the subjects life and then cut like an onion to show slices of time, similar to the trunk of a tree. - COLOSSAL

Pixels and Polaroids
Created by Jherin Miller
Note from Artist: Pixels and Polaroids is a series of images I’ve created combining pseudo-Polaroid photography and retro 80s era video game graphics. The concept behind Pixels and Polaroids was to blend these two elements into one world where pixelated characters live through the eye of a Polaroid camera. My goal was to combine retro film photography and retro digital graphics into one interesting world, and you get to view this world and it’s inhabitants through these “photographs”. The experiment was the result of working on my video project: Where the Sun Sleeps. During the making of the video, I thought: “What if instead of basing the characters in this pixelated world I used real world footage as the setting and had the pixelated characters interact with things in the real world”? Already committed to my original project I thought about other ways I could express this concept. That’s when I had the Idea of mix- ing the 2 retro elements of Polaroids and pixel art, and this is the result of that idea.

Dear Stranger, by Shizuka Yokomizo
For this 1998-2000 series of portraits, photographer Shizuka Yokomizo left several anonymous letters on the doorsteps of random ground floor apartments that read:
“Dear Stranger,
I am an artist working on a photographic project which involves people I do not know…. I would like to take a photograph of you standing in your front room from the street in the evening.”
The letter specified a certain ten-minute period during which the artist would approach, take the picture, and slip back into the darkness. She would only reveal her identity once her subjects received a print and contact information (so that they could let her know if they objected to their portrait being exhibited).
Yokomizo made sure that when the photos were taken, the light would be too dark outside to see her — it would only allow her subjects to see their own reflections in the window they were looking out of.
