As a printmaker who loves the primitive art form, I long for the time when things are much more simple and basic. For me, it's a good book rather than an iPod (I have never owned an MP3 player); a pinhole rather than the latest DSLR; the most basic cell phone rather than an iPhone. Sometimes life could be much less complicated if you can differentiate the needs from the wants.

    Hi James, that's a 35mm DIY pinhole camera pre-fabricated by Gangwoo Park from Korea that I built myself.
