Über das Buch
The idea for this booklet is very vaguely based on a well-known meme in which a woman presents two pictures in the first panel before judging the two pictures to be identical in the second panel.
The sequence of images was taken from the TV series „The Office". In the scene, the woman asks an employee the following: „Corporate needs you to find out the differences between this picture and this picture". Behind his back she then admits: „They're the same picture".
Meme makers use this basic framework either to relate two events, persons or situations to each other that are only connected on a meta-level that is assumed to be known by the viewer.
Or they use the meme to create completely new connections that did not exist before. Sometimes the resemblance is merely an assertion. How is it here?

Über den Autor
Although I have been taking photographs all my life, I am still late to the party in terms of the seriousness with which I take photography. For a few years now, I've been shooting exclusively analogue - primarily to slow down the process and to pay homage to a culture of error that prevents me from knowing exactly what the end result will be before I release the shutter. Fehler is king. Usually I do not know what I am doing when I shoot film. I do not ansel my shots - unpredictable. There are usually no people in my pictures - except for the portrait work obviously. They show trees, houses, cityscapes, the sea, the sky. As if humanity had already disappeared, a post-human world, clear, quiet and peaceful. No cars at all.
