Die Antwoord + Roger Ballen
We were talking about Roger Ballen in seminar recently...for some reason I was watching Die Antwoord videos (here's a good example, if you haven't heard them) and just found this one, directed by Roger Ballen. It's called I FINK U FREEKY. Definitely worth a watch.

Tampering with the Sacred
Erasing ‘The Americans’
By STACEY BAKERMishka Henner, an artist who lives in Manchester, England, recently self-published “Less Américains.” The book consists of photographs from Robert Frank’s book “The Americans” that Henner has transformed by erasing parts of the original images.

Kodak Files for Bankruptcy
Kodak filed for chapter 11 bankruptcy today. While it doesn't mean they will go under, it's certainly a possibility. There's also a good chance that the film division will be passed on to another company who might do a better job...or on the other hand, they might just stop making film. Who knows.
Here's an interesting article about how Fuji prepared for the digital landscape twenty years ago, while Kodak spent its money paying out its shareholders.
