I wish I was alone, so I travel is a zine of photographs of my 2010 journey to Georgia and Armenia, where I wanted to climb the highest peaks mt. Kazbek and mt. Aragats. I also wanted to document the life of both countries. I was just a beginner with no idea what I was doing. During the summer of 2012, I studied the photographs that I made on the trip. It felt like I was emotionally blind at the time, since I missed my loved one so much. I learned that one associates with landscape and people nearby: if I don’t have a home I am s stranger.
Help us spread the word if you like what we are doing!
What will be left behind? Could you imagine the incidence of ephemerality of material things and ideas, if they are not spread widely? What will our descendants admire as vintage? Which medium will connect us and the future? For our generation, photography played the key role. Will photography in the future be as important as it was? Will digitalization defile us from our own memories?

Some provocative thoughts on the genesis of virtual world and function of photography in it
(A short article of long title.)
The times that invented photography were a vibrant ones in terms of rapid technological and economical development and also in comprehension towards reality and the world around us. Photography caused a new understanding of space – time relationship. When people were looking at photographs, they understood the images as a faithful representation of reality. That caused a creation of new phenomena: virtuality.
As reported in many sources, people were afraid of new realism that quickly emerged. It required a vast amount of time to pass before people felt confident with photography. Photography flourished in the 20th century. Everyone took pictures and thus everyone became a photographer. With the invention of digital image everything changed. Process of producing images became so easy that there are just a few serious photographers left. In contemporary photography image is not the goal as it was before. Nowadays the key is the understanding of contemporary photography concept and it’s process.
It’s another teaser from us: A quick snap right in the middle of my photo shoot for Golf II project. I even tried to buy one of outstanding thees machines, but the owner didn’t wont to sell it. Too bad.
Don’t forget, the submission deadline is approaching.
