Aposematic-Jacket Screen Shot 2015-01-19 at 20.02.16 Screen Shot 2015-01-19 at 20.02.40

The Aposematic jacket, according to its creator Shinseungback Kimyonghun is a:

‘wearable camera for self-defense. The lenses on the jacket give off the warning signal, “I can record you”, to prevent possible attack. When the wearer pushes a button under threat, the jacket records the scene in 360 degrees and sends the images to the Web.’

Subtle.

Cat-Photographer-1
Photographer Joseph C. Payro’s children – Edmund (12), Ernest (8) and Cecilia (5) – being ‘photographed’ by their cat in 1909.

‘Payro, you’re an idiot’, they said.  ‘A century from now, no one will care that you rubbed a kipper on the side of that Box Brownie!’

How wrong they were.

Wildlife cameraman Brad Josephs sez:

When using a GoPro to capture unusually close footage of grizzly bears for the Great Bear Stakeout for BBC, I had a young bear actually chew on the camera. Amazingly there was no damage to the camera! Some of this clip appears in the film Great Bear Stakeoout on BBC and Discovery Channel.

Warning: Grizzly bears do not floss.

In 1949, Pablo Picasso was introduced to LIFE magazine photographer Gjon Mili, who showed the artist his shots of ice skaters jumping in the dark with lights fixed to their skates.

Fascinated, Picasso conceived a series of light drawings created with a small electric light shot by two separate cameras.
