Lomography

This type of art photography always interest me, the way it emphasizes color on the picture. It's actually called Lomographic photography, I don't know much about the history but I know it's named after a small Russian camera called the Lomo Automat. The art was discovered in Austria by two students in Vienna and shared the art worldwide by helping in the distribution of the camera and the expansion of its community - the Lomographic Society.

I had taken pictures with a Lomographic camera before, and I was astonished with the photos it captured. It really do produce vibrant colors, high contrast with deep saturation and frame of vignettes on the side.  Something of quality that digital cameras don't have, the way it captures the story of life and stored it in the picture, it is really brilliant and astounding. Here are some photos taken by a lomo camera:

I think you're supersonic, your science hurts?..

Yeah its my blog title, and maybe you wonder where'd I get it from...

It's actually from the lyrics of the song Late by The Spinto Band. The Spinto Band is an indie rock band from Delaware, and the band's formation is an interesting story too (just telling you what I read from last.fm). The band started as a recording project by high school students in the late 90's, with its frontman Nick Krill. And the band's name came from Nick's grandfather Roy Spinto which is also guitar player.

I saw this band on TV when they performed a few years back on a late night show. The band is not that really popular but they have some catchy songs with great lyrics and I think the song Late is one genius composition. They are also known for the song Oh Mandy, Summer Grof and Brown Boxes. They're one of the awesome indie rock band that sprouted in the 90's, and more people should listen to their music.
