A special bonus episode of the On Taking Pictures podcast, outside the timeline of the normal show. We talk about building a Hackintosh. The what, why, how, and how much are all covered. Might be scary for some and fascinating for others. If this isn't your cup of tea, enjoy episode #10 from a couple days ago and we'll be back next week for more of the epistemological photo talk you know and love.
Lot's of user feedback, bad US Olympic portraits, contact sheet website design, and Bill Eggleston on this special holiday episode of On Taking Pictures.
