Before LOMO-Imitating digital Apps & Retro-Filters<\/a>, there was actually a Soviet-made 35mm film camera, the LOMO<\/a>\u00a0– ‘the original camera app’. Remarkable night and low-light shots, surreal colour saturation, and real\u00a0organic vignetting<\/a>. Gestural fun, invites experimental attitude, and (not infrequently) great results: the original improvisational, DIY\/chance-operations action-camera aesthetic for anyone.<\/p>\n

REMIX Culture<\/strong><\/p>\n

\u201cEverything is a sample, everything is waiting to be sampled; and everything is renewed when it is sampled, broken down, reconstructed and recontextualized. If architecture is, as they say, frozen music, then \u2014 Miller says \u2014 music is liquid architecture. Music fills and reconfigures space, puts it into motion. All that is solid melts into software \u2014 actually, into free software or shareware\u2026Paul Miller\u2019s lecture envisioned \u2014 but also pragmatically demonstrated, in brief \u2014 the utopian potentialities of postmodern culture. Remix\/Remodel. Deform in order to Transform.\u201d
