on friday jen and i went to the late opening at the tate (amongst other things i was trying out a new camera in low light – the ISO is unbelievable – so little noise at 1600). soweto kinch was playing in one of the galleries. he has done a project with the gallery to take 6 pieces of art and create interventions and put a ghost in the machine. you can get a set of headphones from the desk and listen to his interventions (music, poetry) which riff off the pieces of art. he did his usual brilliant free styling though his VJ was possibly the most hopeless i have seen in my entire life! this was a temporary installation – a new one is being added each week in response to the altermodernity exhibition.
I came because I was intrigued by the Obamaness…. but I feel compelled to ask what the camera is?
I still wait with anticipation to see if our hopes are placed in the right place. Ruth was so compelled by the hope that Obama gives to us all that she has written a song about it!
yeah what’s the new camera… are you trying out the mk ii
yeah i have been saving and saving and doing photoshoots and selling photos cobbling together pennies until at last i have enough so yes 5d mkii 🙂
sweet!
