[2001] : Lomographic Sampling Games .

Lomography's most ambitious project to date.

Ardent and hardcore lomographers around the globe were given a Herculean mission - to fill their Lomographic Sampling Games album with 116 pictures - thereby fully representing their life and passions in glossy photo paper. Over 500 participants stepped up to the challenge - submitting thousands upon thousands of pictures. From this esteemed group, 10 finalists were selected and 2 Grand Champions chosen - Max and Django, a father and daughter team from the United Kingdom.


[2002] : The Pop 9 & "Just Shoot" .

In June 2002 - the birth of the Lomographic Golden Child - the Pop 9.

A 9-lens wonder designed to explode your world into a riot of Pop Art patterns, the Pop 9 pleads guilty to the charge of addicting lomographers everywhere to it's enrapturing photo-format.

Also, amidst much panting and laboured breathing, Fabian Monheim coordinates the release of "Don't Think, Just Shoot" - our most glorious and prestigious publication to date. Published in conjunction with the prestigious Booth-Clibborn Editions of the United Kingdom, "Just Shoot" features 378 pages of over 2000 shining, beautiful lomographs - taken from the millions of submissions that we received during the "LomOlympics 2000" and "Lomographic Sampling Games 2001."


Lomo Onto Tomorrow .

The explicit aim of the Lomographic Society is to study and document the world's surface by taking millions of snapshots of it.

Following the 10 golden rules of Lomography, lomographers shoot as many impossible pictures as possible in the most impossible of situations from the most impossible of positions. These lomographs are put together to make up vast walls of pictures with tens of thousands of images shot by what are often hundreds of individual lomographers, and then exhibited all over the world.

The ever-advancing progression of this grand scheme is embodied in the LomoWorldArchive, a dynamic lomographic documentation of our lives; growing and expanding with each additional (click!) of the lens. A hungry beast with an endless appetite, the WorldArchive stands poised under the endless flow of lomographic morsels, greedily snatching up every photo in between its jaws, and incorporating it into the intricate mosaic of our Society. The Lomographic Society - founded on creativity and boundless energy, is open to everyone with a curious mind and trigger-happy shutter-finger. With Lomography, art is put in the hands of all, and extraordinary expression flows from ordinary circumstances.

LOMO ON!
