Change, Flux, Reinvention

By Jon Roemer On 26 Jan ’12 · 2 Comments

It’s a weird time – I just redid my people print portfolio, first time in years. Yet, last fall was dominated by video work. So, as I redo books (architecture is next) I’m also thinking about video, cameras both still and video, upgrade paths, compromises, choices and where best to allocate resources.

My still cameras, [...]

Gets You Misty Doesn’t It

By Jon Roemer On 20 Jan ’12 · Leave a Comment

A Kodak corporate video used as an intro for CEO Perez’s 2006 appearance at the All Things Digital Conference:

In the Jungle, the Mighty Jungle

By Jon Roemer On 18 Dec ’11 · Leave a Comment

Friday night, somewhat on a whim, I decided to upgrade my Mac Pro to Mac OS X 10.7 Lion. Lest that seem haphazard or foolhardy it wasn’t quite that spontaneous. A Mac Pro has four drive bays and I always have a full clone of my primary HD with the OS. I also made sure [...]

You Say You Want a Revolution

I photographed Steve Jobs once. Some time in ’86 or ’87. Jobs was in a suite at the St. Regis in New York pushing NeXT computers. I remember getting there early and watching him prep.

I don’t have the photos (my employer owned them) and at the time I didn’t think to grab some of [...]

We Can Be Hipstas Just For One Day

By Jon Roemer On 2 Jun ’11 · 3 Comments

I am probably the anti-hip. Not to say that I’m square, I hope I’m not, but I wouldn’t claim to know all the current trends, what’s in fashion, what’s not, or to be searching that out for my look. That said I’ve been playing with the Hipstamatic app on my iPhone for a [...]
