A loose tripod leg leads to a series of unexpected turns... my disgust with a new Super Bowl Mayo commercial, revisiting a decade-old backpack ad for Incase (where I look suspiciously cool with my Phase One), and my growing obsession with how we photograph photographers. I consider my archive of 1.4 million photos using Excire Foto, leading to some uncomfortable revelations about nostalgia and aging. The callers this week bring their A-game: Bryan contemplates photography as a perpetual learning tool, my old Williamsburg neighbor Tom (Mas Ysa) asks about therapy and artistic evolution, First Class Brad has an airport meltdown over egg prices (prompting a visit to my chickens), and Irv from England finally asks about those cryptic newsletter credits.
