Photos Found on the Street →
Superfluous: The photographs on this site were found on the sidewalk, in the park, or on the street. Each is a unique slice of history whose anonymity invites interpretation.

Lobster: Sexually Transmitted Electricity →
They call themselves the power rangers of noise rock. “Sexually Transmitted Electricity, produced by Paulo Miranda and Rodrigo Cardoso at the AMP Studios in Viana do Castelo, is a document that captures Lobster in their prime. It is neither late nor early; it is right in time. Such urgency deserved a record like this – a more than admirable debut. More than meeting hopes and expectations,...

This mass-produced Soviet camera was so cheap and easy to use that they shot rolls of film, ignoring the established rules of “good” photography. The resulting snaps were often odd to look at, out of focus and, due to the character of the Lomo lens, garishly coloured. But they...
