pola-lounger


so as i thought, my vintage 108 polaroid film from 1977 was completely dust. however it was not a total loss. i still had a lot of fun shooting all of the invisible images. there's so much joy in just clicking through and then pulling that tab after each shot, even though there's nothing there to develop. after i was finished i had quite a pile of paper on the floor and as i pulled out the film cartridge i examined it a little closer. i'd forgotten how cool these little tin cartridges were. i took it apart and began to play a little. in a few minutes i had constructed a model chair. so you see, even in their garbage the polaroid people found ways to keep us all artful. it makes me more than ever want to try to support the latest effort to help save polaroid from extinction.
