Years ago when I first got a digital camera one entertaining thing for me to do was to run around taking pictures of television screens. I love the moire patters and curvature distortions. Of course one gets a bit bored after a while and the whole deal is forgotten about.
Last night, however, Retha and I were chatting about her upcoming exhibition and the work she’s doing for it. I mentioned the TV photography and we decided to try it out. We don’t have a TV any more, so LCD computer monitors had to do. The result is similar to using a TV, but I prefer the extra geekiness the LCD provides.
Also, I couldn’t leave the image alone, so it got itself an orange stripe!
Edit: 601 is a reference to my apartment number.
