The Node •

“..just because quantum physics said so.”

“The Node” is a project of time-image represented as pixels, which is connected to its reinterpretations done by various frequency artists.

“The Node” should be considered as a virtual installation including a collection of recurrences. Each audial redesign of “The Node” will be made by the pure minds in the list below. A notification will be made when each version goes online.

Saul Leiter • Legendary Photographer & STREET SEEN: The Psychological Gesture in American Photography, 1940-1959

I have recently discovered the fantastic work of Saul Leiter (born 1923) is an American photographer and painter whose early work in the 1940s and 1950s was an important contribution to what came to be recognized as The New York School.

Coming form an artistic background (painter),  Saul’s work reflects an abstract yet minimal and inviting compositions that will make your eye wonder like no other. Back in those days when the majority of photographs where shooting black and white film, Saul took a totally different direction by using the beautiful cibachrome film (color)  that brought an outstanding and unique feel to his wonderful art.

If you are interested to hear Saul talk about his work, I have attached a video found on vimeo in which he tells us about his path as a photographer. It is a fairly long video, however extremely interesting and inspiring, if you are into photography.

ENJOY

BEST MADE COMPANY

We have been following with great interest the phenomenal work of  BEST MADE CO. for the beautiful AXE design. Delicacy and efficiency is not the first words that come to your mind when you think about a tool such as an Axe. However, this is another great proof that craftsmanship is the essence of a well designed, clean and outstanding product.
