A DIY digital camera might seem more like a failed art project at best, but the Craft Camera is a relatively simple set of instructions for creating a camera straight from home.
An unexpected creation and effortlessly cool, the Craft Camera is described by creator Coralie Gourguechon: "The initial objective was to counter planned obsolescence and complexity of electronic products." This objective really speaks to my savvy for the market cycle and is an interesting approach to combating against a market that is consistently obsessed with new products that replace older models.
The DIY digital camera seen here is indeed a way to build a completely custom-tailored version of your dream camera, but it's also a clever way to rage against the technology market machine.
