Meeting with mentor #1

Last week, I met with my mentor, Fletcher, for the first time. Fletcher is a freelance creative technologist who specializes in prototyping new hardware for companies. He also has a passion for photography, which is why he was suggested as my mentor.

I explained my thesis project to Fletcher, who responded enthusiastically and answered some questions I had during my Show-and-tell presentation. He recognized that my main goal is to teach people how to slow down the process of making photographs. Fletcher gave me advice on overcoming some of the hardware challenges I have encountered, such as 3D printing the camera body. He also provided suggestions for future production after the prototype stage.
