I’m going to let you in on a terrible vice of mine. It’s a habit that just may turn me into a pauper: photo surfing. Give me pretty women, aerial photography or Friendster, and I can blow hours just clicking through.
If you too are gluttinous in your vision, stay away from the photos of mutineer Preston Merchant. A documentary photog, Merchant apparently goes to every desi event and destination you’ve ever wanted to see:
- Artwallah
- Kiran Desai reading
- Vikram Seth reading
- SAJA convention
- Trinidad
- Guyana
- Miss India Georgia
- Desilicious party
- Azim Premji ringing the NYSE closing bell
Some of the photos that caught my eye:
Look, buddy, I’ve got Desai photos too… from, uh, outside the Rubin Museum (it was sold out ).
wow, enough brownie events to give me some ehem…gerd…anyhow, yeah..the friendster vice is a vice for a lot of people that i know… they should have a help line for ehem… us..
Friendster used to be more of a vice when you had to look through all your friends to see who had new pics .. now they tell you as soon as you log in and it makes the experience that much less stalkerish.
Friendster is a vice of mine too. But the more I browse in it, the more I worry about society. At the same time…I…just…can’t…look…away…
his reference to “miss india georgia” is to a great doc on the pageant. hard to find. i bought it directly from the producers.
Flickr is my vice. I love spending hours on end looking at photosets of peoples travels to foreign lands(especially India and places there) – kind of going through their experiences. Its like visiting these places through the prism of another’s lens – gives you a perspective of the tourist experience, of how an outsider views a culture and its people.
