If you're a fan of Missy Prince, she's being featured in the next Selektor magazine.

Pre-ordered this. Can't wait, she's rad.

Also, Mossless vol 3 is great, but I really don't like the book design. The photos are small and jammed together and the text is too small. I got it and kinda felt like, really?

There's an article in today's NYT about a book called "Project Lives", which is a collection of photographs taken by kids in NYC projects using disposable cameras. It looks pretty interesting (and all royalties go to NYCHA programs).

Have you read Shore's "The nature of Photographs"?
It is also throughly excellent and I can't recommend it enough.
His writing style is brief, but quite dense so you will probably have to re-read some paragraphs. It's totally worth it, however.



Just bought this from the Strand as well and I've been reading it slowly. There's not much text, but I'm enjoying it.

Oh, and speaking of selektor, does anyone have the either of their two prior releases (Alex Cretey Systermans and Shane Lynam)? I like both of their work a lot.

So, does anyone know anything about printing a photo zine? How one would even go about doing that?

I folded up some paper into a 1/4 sheet zine and laid out my photos and then unfolded it to get my print layout, put that into a pdf and got doublesided color copies which I sliced in half and stapled and then lost money selling them all because making money on zines is not very punx

lol if you think the point of a zine is to make money not to print at huge expense and foist on family and friends who will slot it into a bookcase and throw it out the next time they move (that's my plan at least).

Just saw that Curran Hatleberg is releasing a book later this fall with TBW Books. I really like his stuff. Cant seem to find a place to order it, but I guess I'll keep an eye out.

I've never ordered directly from Mossless but that's pretty standard for small independent publishers TBH. Same goes for record labels. It's usually one person handling everything shipping related so it's not exactly fast.




Any new york goons going to the New York Art Book Fair next weekend, Sept 18-20? If you have any interest in photo books or zines you really should try to make it down there.

Godammit I'll be out of town for a wedding. gently caress, I'd really like to go.

Anyone want a copy of Stephen Shore's "The Nature of Photographs"?

I got a copy for Christmas but already own it.

Willing to send for free to any goon in the continental US.
