photoblogs I visit: [daily dose of imagery] |
|
about this photoblog: My name is Fred Benenson and I started this Photoblog in March of 2005. I'm shooting on a Canon 20D, 5D and Pentax K1000. My photos have been published in The Wall Street Journal, SPIN Magazine, PopSci.com, Village Voice, Gastronomica, Gothamist, and IceCreamMan. Here's a bio that I use when people ask me for one: While studying philosophy and computer science, Fred co-founded the Free Culture @ NYU chapter of Students for Free Culture, an international student movement focused on copyright reform, technology advocacy, and digital activism and currently serves on the board of the organization. In 2005 Fred staged the first-of-their-kind DRM protests, and continued working with his chapter to organize several conferences, art exhibitions and lectures focused on free culture. In April 2008 Fred launched his thesis for his masters at NYU's Interactive Telecommunications Program named Cause Caller; a web service designed to help citizens organize virtual phone banks using VoIP-based telephony and a semantic media wiki. Fred is currently Creative Commons' Cultural Program Associate and is based out of New York City. He spends his spare time with the Rubik's cube, bicycles, and cameras.
