Hybrid7: An Art Project
http://www.hybrid7.com
This project is an attempt to explore who we are, what we see and how we interact with the everyday things around us. The premise is simple: weekly, the three of us (Craig, Christian and I) will each find two items around Newburyport as subjects. These can be places, items, people, anything, and each of our jobs for the week is to shoot a picture of each item.
Every Friday, we'll post our results side-by-side and we'll see how the results turn out. We've been trying not to see what one another is taking to purify the outcome, but even in the first issue you'll see that a couple of the pictures even came out similar.
And that's perfectly fine.
It's the way we see things.
Over time we hope to develop quite a catalog of pictures. The objects and deadlines help to spur creativity forward even through times when it may not be obviously present. Not only are we exploring how we see things but we're also making the uninteresting interesting. You get three views items that one may normally never even consider in their daily travels. We're making the things you may walk by everyday stand out and impress.
Or so we hope to accomplish.
The project is young, but the first issue is up and we're ready to churn forward.
Check it out.

Hey T nice work on this. It is a great idea. I love the different takes on the subject chosen. Check out my new site I made. Peace. Bob
How about opening up the photographers and generalizing the object/location. I am sure you want to keep this an iMarc/Newburyport art project. But if in the future you want to open it to others... let me know. I would love to join in...
Nice stuff!
great idea, really cool implementation. once you get into a regular pattern on shooting and posting, it would be neat to see your interpretations of more expressive subjects (order, chaos, happiness, etc...)
Holy Ghandi- abstract concepts such as happiness and chaos brought into the frame of a single photographic moment - it's a brilliant idea... I like it!
