zand.photography - experimenting with gear & light
zand.photography existe aussi en français
'VonCam' with some gear review or experiments on the first and third weeks of the month,
'Serial' for a recap of last month's traditional photography (digital and analog with lots of films, lenses, and sensors) on the second Monday,
'Matnum' for a recap of last month's computational photography (basically image software development and taking pictures with code for my photo apps Camare, Vica, Digital Paula, and Darkcam) the last Monday.
'AIsHit' are now at an irregular frequency, using great photographers of the past and present to assess artificial intelligence.
The Photocollective dialogues will have new episodes in an irregular fashion after more than 50 episodes. If you have someone you'd like me to interview, please reach out!
Visual experiments from analog to computational, are a pretext to talk about digital matter or silver oxide substrate. I use all gear types, from film to software and algorithmic programming.
