Came across this guy's artwork, for sale on saatchiart.com - interesting to look at the cameras with eye watering prices for the prints:

If you want one for cheap, I can make one using stuff from my collection and a borrowed ugly wallpaper catalog from the hardware store... ;D
What I find a bit sad is that they call them camera selfies when in reality they aren't.
The one with the Horizon should have the lens pointing dead center in order to reproduce correctly. The half frame cameras lack the presence of grain and the cheap plastic fantastic cameras lack the fuzziness associated.
Also, some of the cameras are devoid of a self timer and a cable release...

Definitely wouldn't buy any of those pictures. And yes, I have enough gear to make some myself.
Probably taps into the market segment where people have only known digital cameras and smart phone. Those analogue boxes are kinda cute!

Well... I guess that if you're British, you won't like him very much... he's the one who got Thatcher elected in the first place... he also worked for big tobacco companies.
