Photo News: Top photo blogs united – Magnum prints sold to Dell – Dazed & Confused augments reality – Menuez launches personal archive

Posted by liveBooks

The biggest news in the photography blogosphere this week has to be the launch of a new photography blog that aggregates a selection of top photography blogs in one place (phew, that’s a lot of “blogs”). On Monday, Rachel Hulin, Kate Steciw, and Danielle Swift launched The Photography Post, which includes visual feed from dozens of top photo blogs, as well as a blog, a store, and a “Museum of Online Photography Collections.” Users can view the blog feeds by category or “like” their favorites and see only those. No wonder it’s already been featured on several top blogs, including cultural clearinghouse NotCot.org.

Wired ran an in-depth article last Friday outlining the recent sale of the Magnum Photo Agency’s press prints collection to Michael Dell of Dell computers. The collection will be cataloged and housed by the Harry Ransom Center at the University of Texas, Austin, which will scan every print, front and back, put in place a fellowship program to forward research of the holdings, and offer a rotating lecture series by Magnum photographers.

Dazed & Confused magazine released its March issue, a.k.a. the “Augmented Reality Issue,” yesterday. Certain pages of the magazine include QR codes that readers can hold up to their computer camera to start exclusive fashion videos, which can also be paused anywhere to reveal designer credits for the outfits. You can check out the details and a sneak preview of how the videos work here.

RESOLVE contributor Doug Menuez launched his new personal stock archive on Valentine’s Day with an appropriately themed showcase titled, “Love.” You can read more about the Menuez Archive Projects (MAP), which lives alongside Doug’s interactive liveBooks portfolio site, in his interviews on RESOLVE and Heather Morton’s Art Buyer blog.
