"Contact49"
Ok, you got me hooked! I'm not sure I understand the title, but perhaps you can add a bit more? And how long have you worked on it? How many photos?Just finishing a book called NO DOGS AND SENGHA GAIA...all taken in Los Angeles on Polaroid film
Reginald this is 2 separate themes in one bookOk, you got me hooked! I'm not sure I understand the title, but perhaps you can add a bit more? And how long have you worked on it? How many photos?
Reginald this is 2 separate themes in one book
I took the pictures about 2 years ago but finally found a book editor to do the dirty work..i.e. layout and design...just have decide how and where it's being printed.
Sengha gaia was a spiritual house I lived in for a moment..the grounds were rough but still a beautiful space..it is now gone
No dogs were photos taken around Los Angeles...its basically a pun on the title because there are no dog pictures nor are there any bad ones either!!
Is there a theme to these photos?49 images within the 49 square miles of San Francisco
These days you don't need to be renown photographer to publish a monograph. Blurb and many others in the P.O.D. industry will even give you a free ISBN. Upfront cost is nothing but your time. So, have you published one? Are you planning one? If you did, what's your subject matter? What's the idea behind your (real or imagined) coffee table sized monograph?
That's spectacular. As an ex-SF resident (Potrero Hill), I can just imagine how super that project would be. How long have you worked on the project? I wish you massive success with your MOMA show.
Rory can you give details about the printing
I'm interested in contacting edition one
https://www.photrio.com/forum/media/users/rorye.3586/ perhaps a visual hint about rorye's monograph?
rorye....have you photographed San Francisco's current iteration of downtown? Shocking ghastly architecture. Your Media photos are wonderful.
I photographed much of South Of Market in the 70s, while it was still full of machine shops, printers, photo and graphic studios. Kodachrome and (sadly) Verichrome. Was shooting owners of SOM businesses that still existed and had existed before 1906.
JTK Thank you. I really don't photograph much of the current architecture, it doesn't remotely move me. I too love the old machine shops, turn of the century architecture etc. I try to show things that won't necessarily be around in 100 years, many of them are gone already.
I just finished up a book that is a collaboration with a poet, 40 photos illustrating 40 poems, called "The Purpose of Things." Not quite coffee-table size, but we have a publisher and hope to see it published for the holidays.These days you don't need to be renown photographer to publish a monograph.

Congrats! That's fantastic. Which came first, the photos or the poems?I just finished up a book that is a collaboration with a poet, 40 photos illustrating 40 poems, called "The Purpose of Things." Not quite coffee-table size, but we have a publisher and hope to see it published for the holidays.
The poet had written the poems. I found out about the project and offered to shoot photos to illustrate each concept.Congrats! That's fantastic. Which came first, the photos or the poems?
When it's available I hope you post about it. It sounds very interesting.
A while back I began collecting a certain kind of vernacular photos from the 1970s. After spending time looking at them, I have an idea to write very short stories about each photo, as though the photo had come after the story, or had been taken to illustrate the story. Almost a reverse of your project.
Great work! From the preview it's very nice."The Naked truth is Always Beautiful" http://www.blurb.com/b/7767996-the-naked-truth-is-always-beautiful A happy hour exploration into the structure of truth.
