Back to the objects themselves.

So after our SAS presentation I started trying to work with this idea of the treadmill/treadwheel however I feel this was distracting me from my interest in the obsolete objects themselves. I tried some filming of a treadmill and even somebody running on a treadmill and had the idea of objects coming past on the machine. However, I feel it just wasnt working and any way of me placing objects on the machine whether it be physically or digitally wouldn't look as good as I envisaged in my head.

Instead of trying to find an analogy to our situation and our relationship to objects, I decided to start working with the objects directly. I started sourcing obsolete objects; hoping to find objects which have been made obsolete for numerous reasons.

 I borrowed a macro lens and started taking photographs of lots of different objects and parts of objects which may have broken. Here are some of the inital photos:
