The idea is simply to create a very simple, handy and elegant digital camera preserving its very root the HOLGA camera.

Let’s talk about its features. You should not be surprised if you won’t find any LCD display on HOLGA D unlike any other digital cameras. It is an adaptation from the good old film cameras where your photos would remain mysterious.

Just like with those vintage cameras, you’ll always have an idea how many frames left for you to shot, effects like B&W (black and white) or Color, the aspect ratio and the battery status. You’ll be able to set the ISO and Focus Ring. There is also a port where you could plug accessories like Viewfinder, Aperture disks, Hot-shoe and a mini Flash.

In my opinion, I guess the standard battery pack should be used on this camera instead of the regular AA battery.

Well, this digital HOLGA camera is a toy camera that you would want to have! You probably can’t wait to have a grip on this camera.

What is HOLGA?
The Holga is an inexpensive, medium format 120 film toy camera, made in China, known for its low-fidelity aesthetic.

The HOLGA D. Concept by Saikat Biswas

Holga D is a digital camera inspired from the extremely popular cult of Holga and other toy cameras of its kind.

You’ll notice also that ‘directory’, ‘im feeling lucky’ and etc with ‘l’ or ‘r’ has been replaced by ‘w’ like ‘diwectowy‘ and ‘im feewing wucky’.

This is really old like 2009.. And it’s still available. A minute or a couple wouldn’t be bad to waste your time. Go check it out.

Philippines-base art trope CollisionTheory returns to the scene with aggression, quite literally, over the weekend.  Commissioned by Nike and Nike Philippines the man behind CollisionTheory, AJ Dimarucot, created a portrait of the Filipino national hero, boxer Manny Pacquiao.  The larger than life illustration served as the boxing ring mat for an invite-only viewing party hosted by Nike for the Pacquiao vs. Cotto match Saturday evening.  A collage of symbolism in Pacquiao’s life, from the Philippine Eagle, personal stats, to championship belts and trainer Freddie Roach, all formed a resemblance of Pacquiao.  The canvas then went through a top-down splatter application in blood red paint.  Making the installation a hallowing effigy of the World Champion.
