I’m taking a course through @magnumlearn taught by @littlebrownmushroom about photography. The first assignment is to make a list of #my5influences from outside photography, write them down, and see if you can find a connection. What I see in this list is a tension between order (clean design, straight lines) and chaos (punk rock, Ray Gun magazine/David Carson). Some of the items here combine them, like shortwave radio, where there are generally straightforward programs, but you can struggle to understand them through the noise and language barriers. #alecsothcourse
