Polaroid photography! Love it. Thankfully the demise of the Polaroid never happened with the inception of
The Impossible Project. So what's the deal? "In October 2008 The Impossible Project saved the last Polaroid
production plant for integral instant film in Enschede, NL, and started
to invent and produce totally new instant film materials for traditional
Polaroid cameras. In 2010 Impossible saved analog instant photography
from extinction by releasing various, brand new and unique instant
films. Therewith Impossible prevents more than 300,000,000
perfectly functioning Polaroid cameras from becoming
obsolete, changes the world of photography and keeps variety,
tangibility and analogue creativity and possibilites alive." You can read more about the team
here. And you can buy film and cameras from their site too.
I just got a batch of film, a nice mix of B+W, clolour, and old stock.
Can't wait to text it out in Barcelona this weekend! Today I'm heading down
for three weeks to do an intensive Spanish course...wish me luck! When
I'm not studying I'll be revising, wandering the streets, and tanning!
