Plastic Prophets... the book!

Tue, 19 Jan 2010 12:28:46 -0600

Way back at the beginning of 2009 while I was wrapping up work on my 2009 exhibit at Distinction, I created a one-of-a-kind monograph for the exhibit. 100-plus pages of behind-the-scenes photos and stories that revealed insight into the process I went through in creating the photographs that were to be part of the show. The book was a lot of fun, and I was very pleased with how it came out and how well it was received by those who visited Plastic Prophets of Vinyl Redemption. People really liked it!

One problem...

Printing the book was EXPEN$IVE!

Though I would have liked to have made the book available for sale, I really didn’t see a strong market for a book of photos that cost in excess of $120. So, there were only two copies printed.

Still, I like to share, and I’ve just completed work on a web browsable version of the entire book. It’s not real fancy, but you can flip through all the pages and read all the text. Fun facts! Alternate shots! Weird interpretations of what all this crazy stuff means!

I’ve placed a permanent link to the book on the Publications page, or you can simple click on the cover above to open the book and start your exploration through Plastic Prophets of Vinyl Redemption.

And... maybe someday, I’ll find an affordable way to produce the book for real so that you can have a spectacular, colorful copy in your hot little hands.

Have fun!

Just in time for the holidays, we now offer smaller-sized editions of some of our most popular photographs!

We now have 10 album editions ready for your purchasing pleasure that span work from 2006, 2007, and the Plastic Prophets series. (Some of these aren’t currently available as limited editions, so you have the chance to own a piece that is a completely new release!)

Not only will your photo arrive packaged with the utmost care, you will also receive a signed mini Certificate of Authentication and a fun Plastic Prophets photo sticker. At prices this sweet, no one will accuse you of being a Scrooge if you pick up a few for yourself. And don’t forget, all limited edition prints are still 30% off through December 31. From everyone here at Wind-up Dreams & Vinyl Nightmares, Happy Holidays!
