I suppose this technology holds out the possibility of a future where everyman can be his own technological innovator, product designer and fabricator. “If you can imagine it, you can make it!”
Wow.
Then, I’m reminded of the wide variation people exhibit in matters of talent, technical savvy and, most of all, taste. After all, someone at some time thought the ’91 Chevy Caprice, Pontiac Aztek, Nissan Cube, Toyota Echo and VW Thing were really cool-looking vehicle designs. The mind boggles.
Maybe this capability will work out well overall. I’m making a good-faith effort not to scoff and reject the new and different out of hand. Looking at Marius’ interesting but aesthetically challenged camera effort, this is going to take a lot of good-faith effort. 😉
Started out doing photography at the age of 6 using an uncle's old 1940 kodak brownie box camera. At 15 years of age, I decided to buy my very own 1975 Praktica SLR camera. I now shoot with a Nikon D850. I do unpaid TFP and commercial paid work.
