Michael Schmelling's The Week Of No Computer

Michael Schmelling's website possesses quite the diversity of photographs. In addition to his interesting editorial work, he also has a number of engaging personal projects. The Week of no Computer "is an obliquely autobiographical collection of photographs and writing, constructed from the footnotes and outtakes of Schmelling's life." TV Books published this work in 2008, which can be purchased here through their website.

For those of you out there interested in book cover design, you should take a look at George Saunders' Pastoralia, In Persuasion Nation and Civilwarland In Bad Decline - all of which Schmelling provided cover photographs for.

Kathrin Klingner's Domestic Intervention

Hey Everyone!

After a much needed respite from blogging in the past couple of weeks, we are back to our regular posting schedule. To inaugurate 2010 on this blog, we offer up Kathrin Klingner's Domestic Intervention - a project that explores the intersection between sculptural mediations and ubiquitous domestic spaces.
