Photography are probably one of the best things to happen in the world of art. A single photograph can speak a thousand words, have a thousand painting hidden within it, a thousand pieces of music captured in a single slice of frame. Polaroid made it really easy for artists of every kind to capture the beauty of everyday life, and this article talks about their course over the past decades, from its rise in the 70s to its fall in 2001; and it concludes by talking about the future for this company and the photography industry in general. An interesting read.
The art industry is fascinating. I know of an OWU Alumni who is prospering in it and a large part of his success came from making coffee tables out of coal.
