Congolese Wrestlers, Kinshasa by Colin Delfosse

Wrestlers! Hey all look like kindoke

That word is offensive to people who pratice traditional religions and spiritualities. It has been used by both Congolese Christians and Muslims to demonise them and also oppress them. Many people who pratice traditional religions and spiritualities adorn themselves like this and some of those photographed probably are practitioners . I’ve never heard that word used in a positive way by Congolese Christians and Muslims so refrain from saying it whether you meant it maliciously or not, I’m always wary when Congolese people direct that word at people

2dots:

African Lens: Volume 2 covers (Motherland Cover and Diaspora Cover)
With volume 2, I designed two covers, Motherland cover (representing African photographers in their homeland) and Diaspora cover (representing African photographers in the diaspora)
Motherland cover features a beautiful nostalgic portrait by Ivorian and Burkinabé photographer Samuel OueDraogo.
Diaspora cover features a mesmerizing portrait by Nigerian born, NewYork-based photographer Emmanuel Afolabi.
Very excited to share with you all the final project. African Lens 2 will be released this summer. Stay tuned.
Love + Light

Discovered Sang Han’s portfolio today. Haven’t seen this kind of double exposure for a while now, but it’s got me thinking about something I’d like to do for the next revision of my website. Hmmm.

Vicky Moon— Expired LA

“Expired L.A. is an on going series of my exploration of Los Angeles at night. I look for run down buildings that hold a forgotten beauty and photograph them with expired 4x5 film.

"Every building is unique and captivating, as well as the individual color shifts each building creates with every exposure.

"I am fascinated by the drama that is created by the night sky and seek the beautiful in the overlooked; I find the mundane to be extravagant and I find the beauty in the expired; This is my Los Angeles.”

continuo-docs:

Few people have heard the music of Croatian composer Martin Davorin-Jagodić (for which I just added an entry on Wikipedia), maybe because recording was never a priority for him, as all his work focuses on performances, multimedia installations and graphic scores – his are among the most intricate and elaborated graphic scores ever produced, thanks to their combination of drawing, diagrams, collage, aleatoricism, transparencies and détournement, sometimes all at once.
