I have just had a brief view of your web site. I read the article on The renaissance of Photography. I have to say I am very impressed with the quality of work I read. This article is more than the typical drivel I read about digital photography. I found the article so thought provoking I am going to recommend it be read by all my students in the Science and Society course I teach.
Sincerely,

Hi Zonezero.
I am aklal from India.
You are in Our Top Newspapers, HindustanTimes,March 25. Page 24. Sports and Entertainment. I surf for existence, photograph for survival, write for identity, live for art, think for life, (Not that I think therefore I am but that I am therefore live, write, photograph, surf, and MIND the world, or is it that World is the illusion of Mind, and thoughts are only stirrings or waves broadcasting my life co-ordinates as an eternal SOS.)

More deep hought next time.
I would be happy to contribute to the happy family at zonezero. ( A good home page and good photograph which says it all about you. Before I forget, I am operating a system multimedia- costing less than $300.Your Downloading speed is the world's Fastest. I know about these things, I am also an engineer!
So you have good content, technology, good people, and good audience...like me.

Congrats again,
Reply Soon.
I want a Zone zero in India, soon perhaps.

I don't know what you want to send people, or why, but it's nice to see
an editorial in spanish and english with a glimmer of philosophy. I
myself am almost universally in favor of illustration over photography,
and I take only phase contrast photographs (commonly in infrared) these
days, having a cranky contaflex and a mechanically perfect,
electronically less scrutible Chinon turn me out of trying to shoot
Daliesque details out of a pretty regular shot.

Mtro. Pedro:

He consultado la magnifica sección que usted dirige, y me parece que esta muy bien diseñada y que a todos los que
sestamos interesados en el mundo de la fotografia, nos puede ayudar más de lo que pensamos, ya que ustedes se estan
actualizando a diario, ya sea en su revista , en la geleria, en sus editoriales, etc.
Por otra parte quisiera comentarles que somos estudientes del sexto semestre en la Escuela Activa de Fotografía en Coyoacán en México, D.F. Actualmente estamos desarroyando una investigación sobre dos fotografos (Nan Goldin y Richard Avedon) .
-Los datos que tenemos sobre Goldin es que es una fotografa americana contemporanea y hece dos meses aproximadamente publico en la revista Times, Y recientemente expuso en algun museo de New York. Uno de sus
temas principales es sobre las mujeres y la violencia.
-Richar Avedon sabemos que trabajo para la revista Harpes Bazar por algún tiempo, así como tambíen se dedico a la foto de modas y de retrato.
Como pueden ver no tenemos mucha información sobre los fotografos y quisieramos pedirles su ayuda para saber donde podemos encontrar en este mundom del internet, información escrita y gráfica de la obra de los fotografos
antes mencionados.

Por otra parte queremos quedar registrados en el maravilloso mundo de ZONAZERO.

Mil gracias por la atencion que nos presten.

El propósito de su proyecto me parece interesante.Mi profesión como

fotógrafos, debo confesar sin embargo que el habitar en Montréal me ha
impedido apreciar con mayor profundidad lo que sucede en América Latina. La página éditorial de su sitio se refiere al débate sobre la manipulación de la imagen fotográfica, porque no considerar esta simplemente como uno de los elementos del proceso de creación, que mejor ejemplo para ello que la fotografía alemana contemporánea.

My english is very bad, but I learn and I like it!
I saw some very atractive picture-set in ZoneZero.
I do photos for advertising since 10 years,but now
I'm a little bit frustate because all the photos
I've done say nothing!
This part of my time (photos for advertising) is
good for have money (I have a big familly) and
for learn, but now I will give a soul to my personnal
pictures, to my personnal work.
Now I work for my self and I have more time for take
photos with feeling and not only for a command!
You can see some "essais" at:

I work too on a lot of "pictures-set" for some "concours".
When I will be OK with the html-language, I will try
to propose you some of them.
But first I would really like to be register by you.

Thanks and have a lot of Fun!

Aunque no he podido ver todas las exposiciones ( !!porque son demasiadas¡¡ ), si he visto algunas que me gustaron mucho como la de Maya Goded en ese encuentro que tuvo con sus raíces, y otras me impresionaron como la obra de Joel-Peter Witkin, que tiene una visión muy especial acerca de la muerte.

Encontre su sitio mientras buscaba links (conexiones?,encadenamientos?) para un website que estoy preparando, para la Red Hispana interna de Dupont. En ella trato de dar a la comunidad latina en esta compaqia una perspectiva hacia afuera, mostrar lo que otros latinos hacen con exito en todos los campos. Incluire un link hacia ZonaZero si no les molesta. Me gustaria tambien incluir un poco de informacion sobre Pedro Meyer y la gente detras de este esfuerzo.

Querido Pedro, consegui navegar em toda zonezero, muito legal. Acho
oportuno discutir a fotografia digital. Estão todos com medo da manipulação da imagem, principalmente no fotojornalismo, acho pura besteira. Nos fotografos já manipulamos nossas imagens , no momento de fotografar. Onde fazemos a luz, procuramos um local bonito, e cada fotografo tem sua carga
politica e ideologica na hora de apertar o botão. A fotografia digital
venho facilitar a vida do fotografo, principalmente para o jornal diário.
Minha única preocupação e com a memória, pois pode-se apagar a imagens não utilizadas, com isso perde-se um referencial de uma determinada época. Não sei qual seria a solução. Pedro desculpe não estar falando em inglês, da próxima vou tentar. Gostaria de uma gentileza sua. Estou com uma home page no ar e gostaria de sua opinião, nenhuma foto foi feita com equipamento
digital. O endereço é o seguinte: http://www.digiall.com.br/macfoto/

ZoneZero
URL: http://www.zonezero.com
Category: Art
Issue: 1296
Content Quality: Excellent
Aesthetic Quality: Excellent
TechnoSmart Quality: Excellent

Author: Patrick Joseph
The name is symbolic: 'Zone' in reference to the time-honored photographic technique known as 'The Zone System'. 'Zero' as in the nil component of binary code. The idea is to use the Web site as a place to confront the transformation of photography from the analog mode to the digital one. Semantics aside, ZoneZero takes a sensible approach to the new technology, embracing it without forgetting its subject. You won't find any of the baubles and gimmicks so common to Web design here, just good photography. The work showcased at ZoneZero consists entirely of photo essays, as opposed to mere portfolios. Numerous photographers display their musings and images in understated
exhibitions, each collection exploring a theme or place through the
camera lens. The general orientation is predominantly Hispanic,
with images of *barrios* on both sides of the border, from Joe
Rodriquez's starkly journalistic "expose" on gang life in East
L.A. to Kent Klitches' "Street kids in Mexico City". Not all of
the work is so disturbing (don't miss the almost surreal
"Meditations on Mexico" by Marianna Yampolsky), nor does it
all straddle the Rio Grande. A few collections do focus on other
places: Lars Tunbjork ruminates on the spiritual bankruptcy of an
affluent Sweden; Seydou Keita's portrait studio is in Mali, West
Africa; and the colorful, Almodovaresque compositions of
Marcos Lopez hail from Buenos Aires, the most European city in
the Americas. All the photographs are accompanied by
commentary from the artist. And, thankfully, the words tend to
dignify the work, rather than spoil it with a lot of overindulgent
hoo haw (as is too often the case when visual artists talk about
what they do). Marcos Lopez won me over with his candid
introduction to his collection,"Argentinian Pop". "This is the never
ending search for identity," he writes, "in a country that was built
with people that came off the ships. The tango we have inside. To
reflect the double discourse of Modernity. All this I try to show in
my photographs. Besides that, now I'm taking pictures for fun
and to exorcise the pain because my girl left me." As I said early
on, Web design is secondary here: depending on your orientation,
the backgrounds are either dull or unobtrusive. For me, it's the
content--the amount and the quality thereof--that make ZoneZero a
winner. Editor, Pedro Meyer, deserves credit for putting the
emphasis there first. With some refinements, this site could be
among the very best of its kind.

Tan solo he hechado un vistazo en alguno de los articulos , por falta de tiempo, y me han parecido interesantes.


Cuando tenga un concepto mas amplio de vuetra revista ya os mandare un comentario mas explicito.

Excellent web-page. It's good to finally find somebody on the web that
has something to say and says it so eloquently. I was also interested in
knowing if there was anychance to contribute with a project. I have
several in photography and a couple in slide shows (auidio-visual
"Diaporama"). Well hope to hear from you. Thanks for the time.

My address is and I am a retired research chemist
who has been in photography the last 50 or so of my 83 years. My
computer interest dates from my first CP/M machine to my AT286 to
my present 586 with Windows 95. I continue to be impressed by all
that is available on the Internet.

Mr Meyer:
I am the editor of a new web magazine entitled "The Critical Eye", located at http://members.aol.com/grubin1/index.html
Perhaps you have seen my announcement on the photo history listserv.

One of the issues that I am working on deals with current trends in digital photography. Since you are one of the most interesting of the digital artists out there, perhaps you could help me. I am looking for both writers and photographers for that issue. If you could offer a few images for publication, that would be great. Alternatively, perhaps you know of other writers or photographers that could use the exposure and are gifted in their field. Either way, you help would be greatly appreciated.

I like uncluttered style, very clear and dare I say tasteful, I have not
looked at everything but I like what I see.
In England there are a lot of magazines on the shelves dedicated to
photography but the one I liked the most Camera & Darkroom, an American magazine that is sadly no longer available.
Is there a hardcopy version of your Ezine? If there is I will definately
subscribe, if not then I will just visit your excellent site.
