Guest interview by Christopher Schreck
When I look through the various portions of your portfolio – photography, street art, collage, etc. – it sometimes feels like I’m seeing the work of multiple artists rather than one. Is it important to you that your work in these different media be distinct from one another? Are there any threads of continuity – visual, conceptual, whatever else – that tie...

MY BFA THESIS
Three months ago, I graduated with a BFA in Photography. During my last year at Camberwell, I wrote my BFA thesis that focused on how Joel Sternfeld and Alec Soth develop a contemporary practice of documentary photography beyond the editorial system and how narrative is conveyed within their work. Since I interviewed Alec Soth for this, and that he developped some very interesting ideas, I...

A MIXTAPE BY FRANCOIS COQUEREL
Over the next few months, Rocket Science is going to change both its form and content. Of course the interviews will still represent the main part of it, but I really want for the website to become more than this. I won’t say too much, but there’s a book, an exhibition and a lot more coming! For now, though, here is the first of what is going to become a regular feature here, a mixtape...

Guest interview by Christopher Schreck
I’ve been aware of your photography for about a year now, and in that time, it seems like your work has undergone some significant developments – particularly in your approach to composition and color interaction. Do you have any sense of your work having changed? If so, have those changes been deliberate or organic?
I definitely feel change in my work. I’d...
RAIMOND WOUDA, 47, AMSTERDAM
Guest interview by Andreas Till
Are you currently working on new projects?
I am generally interested in how groups relate to eachother and how individuals relate to a group. There is not a lot of photography where this subject is the main issue of investigation. Of course, there is Massimo Vitali and there are others like Hans van der Meer and Hiromi Tsuchida. As Vitali’s work is more...

TREVOR CLEMENT, 22, SYRACUSE
Guest interview by Nathanael Turner
One of the first things I notice about your work is an overall darkness and sense of ambiguity, sporadically mixed in with images referencing the image maker (you) and the analog photographic process.
I think I get this response about the analog process a lot, so I’m going to try to explain what I think is causing it. When I make a grainy photograph, I am not...
JOE NIGEL COLEMAN, 24, MELBOURNE
Guest interview by FMJ Botham
Do you remember how you first became interested in photography?
I’ve always been a very visual person and art has been all around me as I’ve grown up, so I think I’ve been interested in photography longer than I’ve actually been shooting. I picked up a few old analogue cameras about two years ago while travelling through the Czech Republic,...

Guest interview by Kevin Charles
So, you’ve had a big start to the year: You were named one of PDN’s 30 emerging photographers for 2011—how far do you feel like you’ve come since moving to New York?
Well I’ve been in NY for exactly 2 years now and I think I’ve come a long way as a photographer and as a person during this time. Making a move that big on your own...

TEMA STAUFFER, 37, NEW YORK
How did you first get interested in photography and what was the first photograph you took you were proud of?
I grew up drawing, painting, molding clay, and nailing pieces of wood into sculptural forms at my workbench in the basement. I also wrote stories and played the violin. My parents fortunately recognized my enthusiasm for all things creative and enrolled me in art classes at the local art...

JASON HANASIK, 29, SAN FRANCISCO
What excites you most about photography?
I like to look. I mean really look at things. Actually, let’s just call it what it is, I like to stare. When I was young, my parents would take my sister and I to the boardwalk and we would hang out on benches and just watch people walk around, get arrested, pick each other up, etc. Photography gives me the ability to stop all that action and just...

ROMKE HOOGWAERTS, 20, NEW YORK
What got you interested in photography?
I don’t remember. I don’t think there was an inciting moment, that innate curiosity for photos was always there.
At first, Mossless Magazine only showcased a photographer’s image with credit, then a few words, then a proper interview. What made you want to know more about the person behind the photograph?
I was a little disappointed with the...

NATHANAEL JONAS TURNER, 23, NEW YORK
What got you interested in photography?
As a kid I would collect things. I had a rock collection, spider collection, fungus, shells, ect. My mom gave me a small camera when I was 11, and I guess that’s when I stopped collecting physical objects and started photographing things that I couldn’t gather or catch and store in a small box. It was just another way for me to collect...
