We Are Disposable, Yeah

We mentioned this project a little while ago but it has been building up speed recently with a big update to their website so we thought we would remind you plus fill you in on what’s new.

Combining both the concepts of Disposable Perspectives and the production talents of YEAH, “WE ARE DISPOSABLE YEAH” is going to be a photography book that hopes to evoke, inspire and engage. And the best part? You can get involved! Yes you can see your very own photo printed in what will be a very sexy publication.

They want photos that have been captured using a film based camera, be it a Polaroid, a Diana Lomo, a Fisheye or a Disposable. There is no theme, but the more wild and imaginative the concept the better. The best photos will be selected for publication. These will be chosen by a panel made up of the guys behind both YEAH & Disposable Perspectives.

You can submit up to 5 images, entry only £1.95 and they will be giving away a selection of prizes, including a Lomo Diana Mini and 5 x 1 year subscription to YEAH magazine.

YEAH Exhibition and New Issue

YEAH Magazine’s first exhibition has it’s opening night on Monday 16th of August and will also coincide with the release of their next issue. The event will be a big celebration of everything they have achieved since the 1st issue and big thank you to everyone that has supported them so far.

The exhibition will be held at the pop up shop on the roundabout at the end of Commercial Road opposite the One Legged Jockey, just down from Sainsburys. The exhibition will be spread over three rooms which, just like YEAH, will be themed. The first room will be a time-line of what YEAH has achieved since the beginning, the second will be their favourite prints from the last 6 issues and the third will be a launch of their new issue YM007, The Scene.

Find out more at the Facebook event and keep track of updates on YEAH’s Facebook.

Wedgewood Rooms Retrospective Book

Local photographer Katie Anderson is working on a photography project which is a retrospective book about the Wedgewood Rooms. The book is going to have a diary/scrapbook feel to it and at the moment Katie is in the process of collecting any Wedge memorabilia she can get her hands on to scan for the book.

Katie really wants to get the local community involved so is asking if anyone has any tickets, passes, posters, photos, just anything Wedge related really that people have collected over the years, please get in contact so they can be scanned and included.

You can contact Katie at katie.anderson.photos@googlemail.com.
