Closed

Following Sean's ideas this morning, I recalled a couple of projects that cover similar conceptual ground.

First up is Tacita Dean's Kodak (2006), a documentary video of the last days of a French Kodak film manufacturing plant. The full feature-length movie can be seen here, if you're interested. It's got a beautiful mix of these arcane, magical shots mixed with desolate & abandoned factory lines.









Secondly, a bunch of polaroids taken at the Enschede Polaroid factory in the Netherlands, just before it was closed, from Wallpaper.
