As part of my "creative research," I have designed and built a camera to use during my month in Florence, Italy. It has twelve film planes, all in the shape of a pentagon. Each film plane gets five exposures from symmetrical angles. I have only tested one module before putting the camera together, but it seems like it worked, so I don't have any worries going forward. I should be able to start using the camera this week, about half-way through my stay in Florence. I'm thinking that prominent architecture will be the subject matter. Just something to keep it cohesive.
