Sorry, I’ll desist. I just think, for those not familiar with RK's books, her tumblr may give a better idea of her sensibility than most of the RK images available on the web. Google image search on RK can sometimes seem so “pretty,” and that’s not how I see her, at all (though her work is beautiful). I see her work as phenomenological/ existential, and in the tradition of the haiku.

fantastic. love "margret" & her gazes back to the camera; the obsessively chronicled banal/poignant details by the unseen unreliable photographer; that amazing hair. wish they'd publish another edition of the book someday
In September 1970, the diary entries set in, with precise descriptions of what happens during foreplay and then of the sexual act itself, but also mentioning all kinds of things happening besides. All this is meticulously typed, in red and black ink, as by a bookkeeper of his own obsession. The couple go on "business trips" in Günter's Opel Kapitän, stay at spa hotels and visit the casino in Wiesbaden. Then the trysts begin to take place in an attic flat in Günter's store building. Nobody is supposed to know, but people must notice something. Margret prepares roulades and redfish filets with cucumber salad. They drink Cappy (orange juice) with a green shot (Escorial, strong liquor) and watch "colourful television." Margret dresses for him in the clothes he has bought her. He, the perfect lover, in truth is a macho man who wants to have everything under control. She enjoys his attention, his generosity, is happy to let herself be manipulated, is jealous, becomes pregnant despite the pills, and has an illegal abortion − for the third time in her young life. Just before Christmas 1970 the reports and photographs break off. The relationship appears to be at an end. Margret is scared. She tells him that "after Christmas the fucking will be over and you will not dance at two weddings anymore." He gets involved with other women. These are no love stories, though, just obsessive sexual romps, chronicled nonetheless in hundreds of grotesque documents testifying to the stuffy German milieu in the early years of the Kohl era.

hirano takaci’s “etude" reminds me a bit of rinko kawauchi's "cui cui"
much as i love photobooks, there’s different potentialities to the longform photo diary as genre (and other internet forms, cf. ilp favorites unchanging window & internet history)
been thinking of different genres/ media for organizing/ presenting photographs
there’s nothing like the intimacy of a book, or the look of a photograph on a page (screen images don’t invite you to linger, quiet & still, don’t entrance like printed images do— i think)
yet i resist/ resent “projects” as organizing principle
maybe internet provides more freedom to juxtapose, essay in different ways— diaries (not necessarily personal), poems, short stories, doodles, stray thoughts, discontinuous glimpses
on the other hand, maybe internet enforces regime/dichotomy of photographic projects vs democratic flickriver, so most photobooks now are “projects” realizing “artist statements”

I like these photos but there's something that's been annoying me for a while. I see a lot of art photography, including on Flickr, Tumblr etc., where in among, say, a series of ten landscapes and enigmatic street scenes there will be one seemingly random shot of a dog, either looking out of a car window (or generally staring, bug-eyed, at the camera) or (as above) doing something odd. I think they are almost always dogs of a certain type (as in the above photo, terriers and other, similar dogs that have pointy heads/faces and large eyes relative to the size of their heads). Where did this meme come from? Is it just a recent thing or has it been around for decades? I don't like it.
I think that's partly because I don't like dogs anyway, but also because I don't find the shots funny or meaningful, and there appears to be this bandwagon where people have to have one of these shots (to add some 'anarchic' quality to a series?). Having said that, the above example is less objectionable than many, because it's TWO dogs, they're NOT staring at the camera or leaping towards it, and what they're doing -- in terms of physical pose/juxtaposition with each other -- is somewhat visually interesting. It's still borderline for me, though.
