‘Maddie On Things’ by Theron Humphrey

Jessica Fisher — Thu, 16 May 2013 15:38:01 +0000

American photographer Theron Humphrey dropped everything, including quitting his job and decided to go on a year long cross-country road trip to work on a project he calls ‘This Wild Idea.’ But not before adopting his Coonhound, Maddie. Along the way, he was photographing Maddie everyday doing things like balancing on tree stumps to getting into anything he could fit in. Little did Humphrey know that this would turn into a published book titled, Maddie On Things: A Super Serious Project About Dogs and Physics.

Also, check out Humphrey’s Why We Rescue project. A story-telling documentary about how pets transform our lives for the better. Enjoy all of Maddie’s adventures!

The Landfill Harmonic Orchestra

Charlotte Pratt — Thu, 16 May 2013 14:39:49 +0000

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure! The locals of a slum in Paraguay have recently developed the “Landfill Harmonic Orchestra.” Pulling materials from the dump such as oil cans, tin pipes, bottle caps, and kitchen utensils, musical instruments are created. About 20 children ages 11-19 come together to play classical tunes, popular songs, and contemporary Latin music on the instruments.

Filmmaker Alejandra Nash is featuring Landfill Harmonic in her 2014 documentary, which will also be a commentary on environmental education and the dangers of inadequate waste management. Executive producer Rodolfo Madero puts it simply: “What these kids are showing us is that you shouldn’t throw away your things or people just because of the way they look. They represent the fact that not everything is disposable.”

What a beautiful message! See some of the touching images below.

Bent Objects by Terry Border

Charlotte Pratt — Wed, 15 May 2013 15:01:08 +0000

Indianapolis-area photographer Terry Border is a pretty creative guy. His Bent Objects blog is an ongoing project where he photographs a story involving ordinary household objects, often times with food, posed as characters. The characters are brought to life with a little bit of wire placed strategically.

Border recently signed a contract with Universal Publishing to turn the Bent Objects into wall calendars and greeting cards. He also has two book collections of the photographs, with a children’s book on the way. Considering this, he clearly has a lot of material out there, but below are some of our top favorites! Enjoy…x

Photojournalism: What The World Eats

Charlotte Pratt — Fri, 10 May 2013 15:01:01 +0000

What is your weekly grocery budget? Here is an interesting photojournalism project that may put things into perspective a little bit.

Authors Peter Menzel and Faith D’Aluisio joined families around the world for their dinnertime and grocery shopping routines. What they found was that families spend anywhere from five to five hundred dollars on a week’s worth of food. The diets of each culture are interesting, sometimes amusing, and sometimes a little bit heartbreaking. Take a look through the photos below. Are there any that surprise you?
