What is Synthesis?
In the pages of Synthesis magazine, you'll find articles on music, film, art, fashion and technology. Not only will we cover these cultural aspects separately, but we will show how each feeds off of each other. Thanks to the Internet, the world of art has truly flourished into an integrated global community. Art is no longer the work of a select isolated few and ideas are spreading faster than ever before. Synthesis magazine will provide Lomographers and photographers around the world a forum to display their work and talent to an audience of informed, like-minded individuals. Stop by http://store.synthesis.net and pick up a subscription today. |

April 24, 2005
To the diehard pinhole heads out there, the last Sunday in April brings with it a solemn duty. They must leave the lens behind, shut off the autofocus, and throw the megapixels out. On this day, armed with a pre-made or a home-made camera, they must shoot the finest pinhole image of the entire year. Heed their call and click onto www.pinholeday.org for more details and a captivating gallery tour.
Interested?
Organize or attend a local pinhole shoot, meetup, or exhibition in your home town. Drop an e-mail to pinholeday@lomography.com. From now until Pinhole Day, we'll maintain a posting board to connect hole-minded Lomographers around the world. Submit your own meeting points so that lomographers from all over the world can join the pinhole-mania.

Up and down
Many of you true Lomography.com aficionados out there have seen our servers go kaput several times in the last week. The truth of the matter is: we realized that the dazzling mosaic of uploaded photos and content would soon crush our delicate servers under its immense weight. Over the past 10 weeks, we have been swapping out our hardware with surgical precision and replacing it with shiny new super-strong machine. While this has resulted in a "page offline" message here and there, we've lost absolutely none of our data. A new day is right around the corner! We expect to be finished with the immense project very soon and we drool at the though of hosting a massive onslaught of new uploads with faster performance than ever. |
