The search for new ideals characterizes our generation. But which values and virtues are still relevant today - religious, moral, spiritual or personal?
The 2013 Trend Diary presents design projects exploring the theme of values.
Why a Trend Diary dealing with values? We feel that in the course of the change instigated by the digital revolution, our view of a clearly defined, shared value system is increasingly fading. While design for "material values" is loud and ever-present, ethical values that paint a picture of belief, family, virtues and moral ideals are drowning in the modern media excess.
What´s in the trend diary? The Trend Diary, in the format of a desk calendar, assembles inspiring works of design by 53 designers of different cultures. Design that conveys values in message and function, provides guidance or aids us in our quest for meaning. Design that shows us that values are the most valuable thing we possess.
In keeping with the trend set by previous award-winning issues from the EIGA Trend Diary series, the publication showcases a special focus on experimental typography and groundbreaking graphic design. The designers at EIGA have developed a unique typeface whose characters are composed of continually rearranging elements – just like society’s understanding of shared values. Furthermore each calendar week features an individual composition corresponding to the designer’s contributions while still following a consistent overall design principle.
The cultural background. Design has been a guide and bearer of standards and values in all cultures from time immemorial. This is evidenced by the codex the Mesopotamians hewed in stone in the 18th century BC, by the awe-inspiring illumination of European Bible manuscripts in the Middle Ages or by the Bauhaus school's function-driven approach to design. Utilizing any given era's media toolbox, design brings the ideals and moral values of society to the surface.
Fact and figures. The Trend Diary was initiated by EIGA, a Hamburg-based design office, and published by NBVD. The production enjoys support from well-known partners in fine paper, printing and print finishing. 53 designers are given a special platform in the form of a weekly motive in the exclusive design calendar.

The Kodachrome Pictures:
These recently uploaded Kodachrome pictures have no artistic value. They were just uploaded to be representative of consumer Kodachrome picture recording during about 70 of the 75 years that Kodachrome was commercially available to the public. Unlike in today’s digital world it took time, money and effort to make a Kodachrome slide. We took fewer pictures, trying to stretch resources, but some are still frivolous.
I'm 97 (2016). I'm about at the end of my ability to continue posting. The ratio of today’s digital pictures that are kept for any length of time and/or printed is much less than the film photos taken in days past. History will be lost. Meanwhile you get to be bored by some old Kodachromes, Anscochromes, a Dufaycolor and perhaps an old black&white or so.
The Camera...
This was made with an Olympus IS-30. I had liked the Is-3 and thought I’d try out the less expensive model for a trip. The camera exposure system was good enough to use Kodachrome 25 with everything on “full-auto. The IS-30 was a small SLR with a non-removable zoom lens. Olympus tried to market it as a ZLR (Zoom Lens Reflex) so as not to intrude into its upper IS or OM market. The IS-30 was compact, reasonably priced and had much better glass than the flatter compacts of its day.
The Film...
Kodachrome was my favorite film. My first roll in the late 30s was such a marvel to a young man. I had tried Dufaycolor which did pretty good, but if it had to be projected you had to ignore the lines of color which made up the image. Kodachrome was so much more colorful to boot. It was extremely sharp and almost grainless compared to other color and B&W processes.
Kodachrome was unique in American film history. Except for a licensee who used Kodachrome’s older process for a few years, nobody made anything like it. Most color films had all the color in the film. Kodachrome picked up color from the processing baths. Also unlike modern slide films which use chemical energy to reverse the negative image, Kodachrome used filtered lights to re-expose within the processing machine. Kodachrome evolved over the years, and was usually the clearest, sharpest grain free color film one could buy. That is until Kodak made a decision to reduce the budget to improve the product in favor of other products and offerings. Fuji Velvia soon eclipsed it in resolution and could be processed locally in regular E-6 mini-machines.

Former Value Giant Drug Store located at 680 South State St. in Ukiah,CA. The Value Giant chain was acquired by Payless Drug in the late 1970's which then over the following months of the acquisition began to rebrand the stores under the Payless name. This specific store remained a Rite Aid (we all know the Thrifty/Payless merger) until Fall 2008 when a newly constructed Rite Aid was built in front of the former store seen here.
Rhino poaching in Assam is a major environmental issues in India which continues in the region of Kaziranga National Park, Manas National Park and some other grasslands of Assam. The one horn rhino or Indian rhino is surviving in the north-east corner of India, Assam. Kaziranga National Park, Pobitora in Marigaon district and Orang National Park in Darrang district of Assam account almost 95% of the total wild One horned rhino in the world. These rhinos are inhabited most of the flood plain of the Indogangetic and Brahmaputra riverine tracts and the neighboring foothills.
Though authorities at Assam's Kaziranga National Park have deployed an Unmanned Aerial Vehicle or UAV, a very small aircraft with camera, to safeguard the one-horned rhino from poachers, and in spite of the best efforts of forest guards , Rhino pouching is still very much high in the region. High demand of rhino horn from home and international market, in false belief of its medicinal value and traditional use, has increased its illegal trade. Illegal migrants encroaching the nearby areas of the National park are abetting the poaching.

Long term resident in a car park I used recently. There were some more interesting long termers elesewhere too (see a few pics on).
This Astra has been untaxed and has had no MOT since 2017. Very odd how some cars just get left in car parks. This, even if it's terminally broken, must have some scrap value surely?

David Ellis – “True Value” @ Joshua Liner Gallery.
At the Joshua Liner Gallery is True Value, Barnstormer David Ellis‘ first solo exhibition with the gallery. The multi-talented Ellis showed an exciting and varied collection of new and recent work, including paintings, videos and his 2011 Pulse Prize-winning kinetic sound sculpture True Value (Paint Fukette).
Finally got my 35mm f/2. I had it tested to snap this Jandaya Parakeet, inside a bird cage from a pet shop. It did not even had a smear of the cage when I took these two images. Color, contrast, bokeh...its all worth the value. Pro-neg STD simulation, but had a tweak in LR and PS from raw. I stand to be corrected on the parakeet name. Images from the internet, Jandaya parakeet has a black beak.
