Comments on: The Insiders http://insig.ht/2009/11/the-insiders/ insig.ht is both quick take and deep dive into the means of making photographs. It’s personal vision, from the inside out; a new, collective way of seeing that’s immediate, original and global.

I think I saw it in a brochure from Sinar, would be early 90's I guess. He would set up the camera in advance, then at a specific moment take one shot and then carry on with the operation. One I distinctly recall was of a man suspended from the roof by a C-clamp on his head, apparently for spinal surgery.<br>I can't recall the photographer's name, tried searching on the web to no avail. I recall that he did print his stuff and sold it to other surgeons mainly. I recall some amazing large format (8×10) colour stuff taken in operating theaters by a surgeon.

I had never thought about using my job as a subject for a photographic project. Probably because I am not able to take some altitude. Maybe there is something to do with my teaching French in China. <br>And I agree : Taiwan is great. I especially liked Kaohsiung. Great post Hin Chua !

And another close friend who went through basic training has been posting to flickr because of active encouragement from Michael. The intent to be photographic is not there. The intent to just point the camera and show it, that's there and it's every bit as important in my view. That is the photographer I want to be again, back to a kind of innocence.

His work at Indiana University in the early 90s was an early touchstone for me in my development as a photographer. Thanks for posting this. I enjoyed this interview with Michael.
