How do creative professionals who are paid to think outside the box express themselves? At Corey McPherson Nash, we do it inside the boxa shallow, glass-topped, wooden box, to be exact.
14 years ago we resuscitated the quaint craft of shadow-box making and turned it into a company ritual. The rules are simple: Don't go outside the box, and don't put anything living inside the box. But the object is ambitious: to provide a hands-on tutorial in Corey McPherson Nash's organizational culture. "Our basic operating principle is to define broad goals, supply a little structure, and then give people the freedom to do creative work."
With the shadow boxes, that principle has produced wildly diverse visions. Among the completed boxes: a vivid frightscape, complete with a crank for animating dancing-devil cutouts; a meditation on "what it could have been," featuring a loose marble and a list of design possibilities; and Tom Corey's own taxonomy of "bad seeds."

Toto, I've a feeling we're not in Kansas anymore!
One of the many signs that I'm back in the UK; and every time I see one of these, I'm reminded of a poem I learned as a child -
The pillar box is fat and red
It's mouth is very wide.
It wears a tammy on its head.
It must be dark inside!
And really it's the greatest fun
When mummy lets me stop
And post the letters one by one.
I love to hear them drop!
(All this, and I can't remember where I leave me keys!)
Thanks to Kim Klassen for the texture!
Both Photo's are of Loco's outside Moira Signal Box, the 56's face the up (Leicester) direction the right hand Loco stands on the Rawdon Colliery spur, my Loco with ex-Guard Brian Neal (Chocolate Soldier) on board awaits departure for Lounge, once I took me Pic, Driver Frank Bailey stands on the box steps, the 58 was en-route to Willington and on this day I was almost in collision with sleepers on the track at Coton Park, cheers the Burton P-Way of the 1980's...
09.02.10 We went to Center Parcs with a couple of friends for a few days which was great. They have loads of old telephone boxes scattered around. Haven't seen one in ages.
Die Agfa Synchro Box (1951-1957) war die letzte „echte“ Box im Agfa Programm. Die Clack war zwar ähnlich einfach ausgestattet, hatte aber nicht mehr die „Kasten“-Form.
Das bemerkenswerteste war – wie schon der Name sagt – der Blitzanschluss. Allerdings konnte nur das spezielle Agfa-Blitzgerät verwendet werden. Das wurde dann doch nicht so oft dazu gekauft, weil es in der Anschaffung und im Unterhalt (Batterie und Blitzbirnen) recht teuer war und damit eigentlich dem „Box“-Konzept widersprach.
Die Kamera hatte 2 Brillantsucher, 2 Stativgewinde (Hoch- und Querformat!) und einen Drahtauslöseranschluss. Man konnte durch einen Schieber eine kleinere Blende einstellen oder ein Gelbfilter vorschalten. Der Verschluss hatte wie immer Moment- und Zeiteinstellung.
Die Agfa Box war mein erster Fotoapparat, gewonnen als Hauptgewinn(!) auf einer Tombola.
inspired by Ildiko H. Vass, Francis Ow, and all the triangular bag fans visiting the german origami convention OD2012! I had to fix some ideas to folds ...

The box for a Zeiss-Ikon Ikonta 521/16, (yes, I also have [and use] the camera!) A 1950's folding 6x6cm camera, as seen on my dinner table. Taken in Albany, CA by a Nikon D40x with a Nikon 18-55mm Vr kit lens (at 35) Camera's on-board flash fired.

Monex-box in the shape of a camera.
Yes, i know, looks a bit like kitsch but hey, it definitely belongs to camera related paraphernalia.
Found on a flea-market today and with a pricetag of € 0,50 i just couldn't resist ;-)
Will look great on my attic between the real ones and will remind me of the fact to start saving for a real expensive camera !
Little Boxes
by Malvina Reynolds
Little boxes on the hillside, Little boxes made of tickytacky
Little boxes on the hillside, little boxes all the same
There's a green one and a pink one and a blue one and a yellow one
And they're all made out of ticky tacky and they all look just the same.
And the people in the houses all went to the university
Where they were put in boxes and they came out all the same,
And there's doctors and there's lawyers, and business executives
And they're all made out of ticky tacky and they all look just the same.
And they all play on the golf course and drink their martinis dry,
And they all have pretty children and the children go to school
And the children go to summer camp and then to the university
Where they are put in boxes and they come out all the same.
And the boys go into business and marry and raise a family
In boxes made of ticky tacky and they all look just the same.
The treat boxes I made for all my clients. I used the group photo of the dogs in their superhero costumes on the top and put my moos all around the sides. Special clients got a full size copy of their dog in his/her costume.
