Hello. My name is Todd Wemmer. Here you will find a number of audio interviews and field recordings related to photography. I've also started doing a few non-audio posts. Text & Video. I found the slide photo above (taken by my father) during a recent visit with my parents. I asked my mom about it.
I use the H2 Zoom, iPod Belkin mic & iPod, and cell phone for recording. I used to use a Sharp minidisc (R.I.P).
I use music from MagnaTunes.com. Great site. Great music. Most of the songs I've used recently come from Joram. You can find him on Magnatunes.com.
I dropped the camera (below) in the ocean (at Good Harbor, Gloucester MA). I told my kids about it in the car afterwards and recorded it. Since I've dropped it, I've been using the audio recorder when we go out. More on this later. I was able to rescue the memory card with the last photographs on it. Little beach snapshots.
The music on this recording is from Nine Inch Nails. The album: Ghosts I-IV has a Creative Commons License. So does their new album The Slip. Thanks Trent.
Last Fall, I interviewed Larry Volk about his A Story of Roses project. He told me about a trip he was taking to France to explore and document MORE for this project. I sent an audio recorder (the one in the picture) with him to record his thoughts. I will be talking more about sending people audio recorders to people later. Here is the short interview I did with him before he left.
(From our interview last Fall)
This is a short conversation I had with photography professor Larry Volk (Endicott College) about his project, "A Story of Roses." I remember talking to Larry about this project when I started putting together my dissertation site and thinking this is ALL about lost (loss) and found (discovery).
You can view "A Story of Roses" on his portfolio site: www.larryvolk.com. A quote about Larry's project from his site: "A Story of Roses" uses a digital process to combine historical family imagery, documents and text into a complex narrative, which explores the nature of identity."
The music on this recording is from Nine Inch Nails. (Track #9) The album: Ghosts

Thanks Trent.
