| Introduction | Mondo Bizarre Magazine Editor-in-chief; translator, writer, photographer, painter, poet, dreamer that now and then makes collages and bakes. The project started in Lisboa in January 2007. It has been running in Porto, with intermissions, since October 2008. It can be brought to life any time, wherever I’m at. The concept: to use a cheap compact camera to take snapshots. In Lisboa the camera was an HP, in Porto a tiny Exilim 7.2 mega pixels. So small that it fits into a clutch bag or in my jeans pocket. |
