So, who's really inside these machines?

Hey guys!
I was stumbling upon Stumbleupon today and came across this really cool campaign (possibly German) called "Life's too short for the wrong job". Basically they're posters on the side of machines (drink dispensers, gas pump, kids ride.. etc) that give us a feeling of what people would be doing if they were actually inside working.

That probably sounded confusing didn't it? Why don't I just show you?





Cool aren't they? I actually find them very amusing yet witty at the same time. Personally, I like them because they make you think in a new perspective. When I looked at these I thought "Huh, what if there were really people inside of these machines?". I also feel like it teaches us a good lesson about our future. Also, about the photographs themselves, I feel that they were taken very precisely and purposefully; the subject matter is great! The expressions the people have in the photographs are also quite amusing. The photographs look really realistic, almost as if there are actually people inside with a class screen exposing them.

I hope you liked these images; I sure did!

Photography Time!

Hey guys!
I have been taking photographs all week for my CyberArts tech. culminating assignment and thought I'd share a picture with you.

Our assignment focuses on manufactured landscapes and my idea was to show factories that are awkwardly placed in random areas (between houses, in front of schools, etc). While I was taking pictures one day, I found this little factory beside a bridge near my house. I looked very out of place and I was drawn to it. This is one of the pictures I took of the factory.


This picture really interested me; the exposure of the image looked pretty cool. It doesn't really show the location of the factory but you can still tell what it is and that it is on a slope. I also found the placement of the tree on the side to be interesting. I really liked his picture and I hope you like it too! :)

Have a nice day!
