i&#8217;d discussed with him of course centered around something cosmic, yet within the realm of standard portraiture.?in order to achieve this he brought several cameras to the fore, including a <a

after an exposure, and then making a negative of this. additionally he scanned the instant film in all manner of shitty ways to create a distressed quality that felt like stars, space dust and other atmospherics.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3303\" alt=\"IMG_1235\"

into the <em>big black delta<\/em> universe. it goes without saying that?the punk nature of the shoot gave the images a more raw, personal and humorous quality. we felt this was important as the same can be said for jon&#8217;s own communications with the world, as he continues to push <em>big black delta<\/em> into new territory in his own personal fashion.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\"
