Tim Barber‘s online curatorial project Tiny Vices just got a fresh new design, and with it some cleaning up. At the moment there are just three portfolios from photographers Aaron Huey, Asger Carlsen and Michele Abeles. Don’t worry, though, all of the old content will return! As Tim writes,
For the re-launch I’m going to re-introduce all the content on the site bit by bit, day by day, along with new content, updated portfolios and other posts. So everything from the old site will get re-posted over the next few weeks/months…
Don’t miss the links page as well, which has become quite the photographic resource.
Well done, Tim.

A photograph of mine can be found in today’s New York Times Magazine, accompanying David Leonhardt’s piece “The College Calculation” (p. 13). If you have a chance, pick up a copy of the paper and take a look!
Have a great Sunday.

Triple Canopy describes itself as working collectively “with writers, artists, researchers and other collaborators on projects that deal critically with culture and politics, and the ways people engage them, both online and in the world at large.”
It was only recently that I discovered the online magazine, but was pleased with the current issue entitled Original Ideas in Magic, which features poetry and photographs by Tim Davis along with some wonderful photocollages by Hannah Whitaker.

My conversation with Norwegian photographer Torbjørn Rødland is now Photo-eye Magazine‘s latest feature. Big thanks to Torbjørn… it was a real pleasure!
Take a look if you have a moment.

Victor Sira has curated what looks to be an interesting show at ICP‘s Education Gallery called Book Dummies. As described online,
Book Dummies is an exhibition that gives insight into the process of making a photo book. It reveals the many layers of the process, and gives a step-by-step view of the approach used by each of the photographers whose book dummies make up the exhibition.
The exhibition brings together books by Morten Andersen, Stephanie Cardon, Yuichi Hibi, Leigh Ledare, Esther Levine, Pax Paloscia and Victor Sira. The show will run from October 25th to December 27th. The opening reception will be held this Friday, October 24th from 6 to 8pm.

Taj Forer was kind enough to send me a copy of the latest installment of Daylight Magazine: Issue #7, “The Agriculture Issue.”
The magazine brings together the portfolios of photographers Michael Ableman, Wout Berger, Tessa Bunney, Jason Houston, Raoul Kramer, Eduardo Martino, Peter Menzel, Brad Phalin, Heinrich Riebesehl and Munem Wasif.
Of the portfolios, my favorites are by Bunney and Berger. But here’s a nice teaser that shows a bit of everything:
