That's the way I call my photo sessions, and I'm often asked about it, so here it goes: First there's the "Grabaciones Camboyanas" from Andrés Calamaro, which is how he calls his home recordings. Being a big Calamaro fan, that idea got stuck on my mind or something.
You've seen Apocalypse Now, do you? Do you remember the part in which the boat arrives to Kurtz's (M. Brando) camp?. There's this guy, the crazy photographer, with 4 or 5 cameras hanging from his neck. Ok, I've always wondered... What's that guy doing in the middle of the jungle in Cambodia? He can't take pics of Kurtz or he would kill him... where did he got the film?... and how on Earth did he had them developed?
Well, a Cambodian Reportage is that feeling, just wondering what the hell are you doing here wherever you are or thinking Why did I take a pic of this?. It's an outgrowth of lomography (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lomography), although I don't consider myself a lomographer. I use some of those cameras and techniques, but I don't limit myself to lomographic principles.
So, that's all, now grab your dad's (or grandad's) camera, load it, get out and have fun.
