I found this page today and thought it would fit in well here.

its about an exhibition that was shown in Banff, Australia last year called “About, above”. It featured an impressive camera obscura starmap, constructed from holes (in the pattern of they Milky Way) drilled in a sheet of mdf over the window of a darkened room, the result is some very interesting images. Looks like it would have been amazing to see in place.

its kind of reminded me of Christopher bucklow’s Guests series.

This has got me thinking about multi-hole pinhole cameras now!
