An eclectic compilation of smart-phone snapshots from the past four years of the photographer’s daily adventures
The more than 200 smartphone photographs in this collection were taken during American photographer Charles H. Traub’s (born 1945) everyday adventures over the past four years. The smartphone is a constant companion that makes photography a natural reaction to nearly any stimulus, an action as quick and unobtrusive as blinking a third eye. A stream of consciousness flows through Traub's photographic response to the places, things and people that catch his eye. His subjects are often ambiguous and presented with little context; yet once the images are compiled together they create a kind of pictorial completeness that is both soothing and disquieting. In flipping through the pages, readers are provided with a kaleidoscopic slideshow of moments from Traub’s daily life, curated so that each photograph amplifies the others as they lead the reader to the next sequence.
