Moseley Festival \/ CoCoMad<\/strong><\/p>\n

On the morning before CoCoMad, we installed two small camera obscuras in the garden of Maison Mayci<\/a> on Moseley High St. This was quite a surreal experience, at pre-9am on a Saturday morning (Pete nor me are morning people) we asked the caf\u00e9 staff it was alright to go through to the garden, and we just went and hung two mini cameras up! It was a beautiful morning and a very peaceful spot.<\/p>\n

Then off we popped round the corner to CoCoMad<\/a>.<\/p>\n

CoCoMad was our first official outing with the newly built camera, shiny curtain and all! It is definitely a different setup process to that of the old camera. With this one, as it doesn\u2019t have wheels, you really have to think about how you position the camera, in order to optimize the view, how visible it is to passing foot fall, and also so it\u2019s safe (ie not on a steep hill so it slides off its tables base).<\/p>\n

We had a HUGE number of visitors. We took 100 flyers with us and gave them all out, so we estimate\u00a0300 + people came to visit the camera. Friends\u00a0and families\u00a0all came along and peered in. Kiddies came and looked, then went and brought their friends back.<\/p>\n

We had some fab conversations with people from all sorts of backgrounds, who gave us some interesting ideas, let us know about other cameras they had seen, gave us some tips on how we could improve it, advised us where to take it..etc..<\/p>\n

We stayed for a good long day and left along with all the slightly sun worn visitors. A good day was had, thanks CoCoMad.<\/p>\n

Also, big thanks to Fi<\/a> for the photos of us doing our thing!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
