$18 camera
A plastic camera bought from Target and originally from China. Overpriced with
out-of-date software, bright pink and requiring 3 hands to operate. But after a bit of mucking around, printable images with the tell-tale softness and auto-romance of an inferior plastic lens. Images that conjure the past, reminiscent of those created by
a pin-hole camera or a Box Brownie.
Like the pin hole camera, a rudimentary method of creating a photographic representation but a reminder of the fundamental nature of photographs.
