about photosdie.com

I found the slide photo above (taken by my father) during a recent visit with my parents. I asked my mom about it.

Photos die, unless we talk about them. Hello. My name is Todd Wemmer. Photosdie.com features audio interviews and field recordings related to photography. I use the term "related" loosely. I might say that everything is about photography. Or photography is about everything. I might also say that this site is really more about the talk that surrounds photography. Or the sounds that surround photography. So I am interested in the talk that surrounds the photograph more than the actual photograph itself. Or something like that. Half journalistic / half qualitative ~~research~~. 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.

While attending the International Visual Sociology conference in New York City, I met and interviewed Bonnie Shaw of Snap-Shot-City.com. Rock on Bonnie. Rock on Snap-shot-city.com. I love their "hello ~~world~~ city" front page graphic. Listen to the interview HERE
