This week consists of two days. the first was a Tutorial and a chat about the exhibition which is due to open in mid-April. Have a look at the reasons why I’ve selected some photos and not others along with the overall theme developing of the show.
Nearly time to go home, one more day to pack in lots of museums and photography, does it work out as planned? You bet it doesn’t.
Time for the third shoot within the factory, and this time it’s after shutdown, when everyone has left for the Christmas break. I find out that I have the factory in my DNA.
A task on post modernism and also a chance to print some images in the darkroom, after developing a 35 mm film first.
Busy day today with two shrines to visit and a couple of high rise viewing platforms. It was a proper touristy day.
Today was going to be the pre-booked trips to teamLab Planets and Tokyo Skytree, plus whatever else I could fit into it.
today was a trip to Hiroshima on the famous Bullet Train. It was a moving experience, both the train and the city of the first atomic bombing.
Week 3 and it’s time to scan or print from the negs I made in Japan, followed by a tutorial with Sylvia about the formative feedback for the Artist Library task.
This week we were off to London to visit the Photographers’ Gallery for the Daido Moriyama Retrospective and the V&A Photography Centre for a walk around the Energy: Sparks from the Collection.

This week we talk about space and how other artists, photographers make use of it in their work. We discuss how it is used, why it works or doesn’t and I find another photographer in Kander who I really enjoy the work of.
Camera Obscura, a simple method of projecting what is outside, into the room using no special optical lenses or anything more than cardboard and tin foil.
This week saw me getting into the colour darkroom once more, this time with some good chemistry in the machine. After this we discussed our essay plans and then the topic of Space.
Busy week this week, first develop a roll of Ilford HP5+, then a tutorial about my practice and lastly a seminar about critical thinking. Fully packed sessions.
A busy week this week, apart from not getting any colour printing done. We had a tutorial on our practice, followed by seminars and discussions on Texts and Videos we’ve been looking into.
A fun packed day in Week Four of Semester 1. Some printing, some washing, some spilling of drinks, a tutorial and a fire alarm evacuation.
Watch something task, I watch lots of photography content on YouTube but could I narrow it down? Yes I could. A mixture of street photography, film photography and talk about methods and practice make this an ideal video to discuss.
Week 3 and Sylvia tasked us with reading an essay by Martha Rosler and interpreting it. What does it mean? After reading it a few times I did get something out of it, have a read what my thoughts wre.
