New York Photo Festival 2008 NYPHExperience NYPH covered in 3D!
The New York Photo Festival 2008 is the first international photography festival in the United States. Our team interviewed the attendees to hear what they thought and said about each show and the future of contemporary photography itself. The website presents the interviews in a virtual environment comprised of actual photos taken of the festival area in Brooklyn, NY. Imagine a fictional street in D.U.M.B.O. joining the Manhattan and Brooklyn Bridges, a mix of environment with the pavilions curated by Martin Parr and Kathy Ryan, and a few of the satellites pavilions Galapagos art space, the tobacco warehouse… Like a movie set, the website transports the visitor into the festival experience offering him/her to meet with the curators, the photographers and the attendees. With curators like Tim Barber and internationally celebrated photographers walking the street and photo/video-reportage of amateurs parties, visitors will be able to stand within New York and alongside some of the biggest names in contemporary photography.

Special thanks to BOX NYC www.box.biz and our team of hardworking volunteers; without them it wouldn’t have been possible to create the 3d coverage of the NYPH 2008: Tiffany Miller, Caroline Ferando Durfort, Jack Lykins, Daniel Loxton, Juliette Riviere, Amy Serkin, Yun Cee Ng, Liz Christina. Thanks to all the attendees, exhibitors and curators of the festival who agreed to be photographed and interviewed.
