52 Assignments: Experimental Photography is a mission brief, a photographic workshop, a personalized journal, and an anarchic guide to putting the creativity back into your photography.

The book is filled with prompts and projects, nudges and sparks, innovations, and inspirations, and experiments in shooting, processing, and printing, to help you kick your photographic habits, step out of your comfort zone, and create your own collection of experimental work. Featuring 52 color-coded commissions and concepts with alternative ideas for composing, creating, and printing photographic images.

You will be briefed to tackle modern uses for traditional film (hacking vintage film cameras, making pinholes, playing with plastic, collecting the filters that inspired Instagram) and traditional uses for digital (multiple exposures, extreme speeds, timed challenges, focus tricks), as well as lo-tech and hi-tech ways to manipulate your prints (staining prints with water, digital effects, photocopy prints, burning photos, printing on flexible surfaces). The rest of the journal's pages are styled for you to add your own thoughts, notes, lists, Top 10s, technical specifications, quotes, and even sketches and doodles, creating a record of your own 52 photographic assignments. These may be completed weekend by weekend over the course of a year or dipped into every time you need to bring a new edge or experimental approach to your photography.

Assignments include:

  • Traditional film
  • Hacking vintage film cameras
  • Making pinholes
  • Playing with plastic
  • Collecting the filters that inspired Instagram
