Commentator Corner
Saturday, August 15, 2009 at 1:21PM Welcome to Commentator Corner. If you’re a commentator at the Marty Wombacher Show, feel free to send me images, writings, thoughts, photos, whatever. You’re a part of the show and I’m happy to spotlight your creativity.
Jason Hwang is today’s commentator and a photographer here in New York City. He builds his own cameras and you can see some of his work here: Jason Hwang.
Here’s three unique and fascinating photos from Jason and here’s what he has to say about them:
“These 3 images are Photo-Grams , done on Polaroid SX70 or Polaroid 600 Film .
A Photo-Gram is when you use unexposed photographic material in the darkroom, and in total darkness place objects on to film (or paper), and expose to light . So here I used Polaroid color instant film. I started doing these in the early 80's, and unfortunately I don't do that much today, only if I really have a good idea, because Polaroid doesn't make this film any more, and it's almost all gone in the marketplace. I have about 15 packs, I think, since I hide them in my apartment so I don't go into a drunk moment and think I have a good idea, like the last drunk idea and wasted a pack.”
Very cool, Jason! Thanks, we look forward to more photos next week!
Jason
P.S. Remind me to take another picture of you next week at work, you’re right, I’m getting sick of this one! Hope you’re having a nice vacation!

"A breath over embers gives life to a vital fire
From ashes, the soul essence is born
The artwork start again trough the creator
And the dark turns to the light..."
