I bet my camera was the cheapest of all 1,000 photos appered in "fotolog.book" which published in 2006 from Thames & Hudson. I punched a hole in a empty film case and that was my camera of choice. I made dozens of pinhole cameras and carried them with me in Los Angeles where I used to live. Each camera contains one photographic paper inside. That means one camera takes only one shot. After I finished taking photos, I brought the camera back to home and develop images in my bathroom. This is one of the photo I took in Los Angeles in 1999. The New Yorker editor, Andrew Long, saw this photo and asked me if he could add my photo to his photo book. The book was published 10 years ago.
