Ainda sobre a propósito da abertura de Passports da Keisha Scarville ontem na Narrativa, hoje há uma conversa com a autora às 16h, e a exposição está aberta logo à partir das 14h.

Every once in a while I remember the Mastodon instance where I have my photography related account (photog.social) aggressively blocks other instances, making me kind of isolated from a good part of the fediverse, and thinking I should move instance because of that. But then life goes on.
Regarding the creative process, on needing to find time to experiment and it’s OK not to produce work.
I have now learned that my thinking was backward: you need to waste time, to fail, to get nowhere to learn.
The combination of travel and photography has become my favourite way of experiencing the world. You move through it, observe it, engage with it, and somehow even manage to preserve a part of it.
João Sousa just did a heartfelt flashback his day on the Beirut port explosion and, because stories only last 24 hours, I urge you to watch it.
O Pau Storch fez um destaque muito fixe, e bem merecido, ao trabalho intimista, genuíno, espontâneo mas muito consistente do Luís Costa! Ide ver o reel, e a seguir o resto das fotos na conta dele.
In 1998 a filmmaker spent five weeks so close to the France squad that they forgot he existed.
These are those photographs.

Watched: A Photographic Memory 🎬
This one was postponed a couple of times at Narrativa, yesterday was the day. Amazing how the memories someone has from the mother is a set of interviews of some of the greatest photographers of the XX century.
Flickr app prompted my login again, but it's ok!
Today I opened Flickr app on Android and got suspicious: it asked me to re-enter my login again, and in the current days of scams and phishing this is enough to raise a yellow flag in my head.
Then I understood why, the app had a significant update. Feels nicer now! Great to see it receiving some love, it’s hard to find a place online that’s not over the top, no frills, where someone can see and share some photos, without reels, popups or worries on how much of its audience a person can reach. It’s this simpler and less flashy side of photo sharing that has brought me back there in recent years, after some time of ignoring it (and even considering closing my account).
So if you’re there, feel free to say hi!!
PS- by the way, speaking of Flickr and passwords, it’s about time they implement a tighter authentication model, something that isn’t just password based. And fediverse support would be great also!
