In a world where technological progress is conceived as an arrow pointing forward, why do some people insist on continuing to work with equipment others refer to as obsolete? Analog Thinking answers that question by documenting the meticulous work of those who choose that path. The screen becomes filled with wonderful objects—optical toys, cameras, projectors, film stock cans, moviolas… And the testimonies from those creators invite us to discover a universe that has a lot to do with both craftsmanship and the collective experience—an instance of thinking with your hands that is only possible with curiosity and patience. And among the words, practices and artifacts, Analog Thinking also saves a place for the images that are born from all of that. And it reminds us that, even in this digital age, they still have a lot to teach us about waiting and making mistakes, surprise and beauty.

In the rainy season, after several days of downpours and gusty winds, calm finally arrives. The animals leave their burrows to dry out and mushroom collection begins. Some are cut for consumption while others remain attached to the surfaces.

The biggest, most populated, and frantic city in South America. While Cariocas are like tropical birds, Paulistas are like frenetic ants. Distances are longer and they're always in a hurry. A busy journey through this beautiful Brazilian beast which cannot help but beating irregularly.

The most transcendent and controversial event since the invention of the seventh art: the disappearance of photographic film.

In the Otomi worldview (an ethnic group from central Mexico), corn, or the wise seed, fell in the form of drops to fertilize the world. Their agricultural activity marks the ceremonial cycles. As an offering and expression of gratitude, tortillas are prepared and dyed with the natural dye of the muicle plant.

Peronoise is a being who tells us a story, who proposes the senses as currency instead of using Argencard or Mastercard, who presents and provides emancipation as a path, who establishes a Ministry of Hearing, who announces that we can dance, that it's a party!, whose enemy is Dr. Mutantis, the white male patriarch of holy causes from the Austro-Hungarian suburbs.

Electromagnetic landscapes and marginal poetry on a holiday.

In 1958, Le Corbusier designed the Corbusierhaus in Berlin. A housing unit surrounded with green areas with capacity for 2,000 people. This is a study of the color and movement in the building’s common areas. Almost dotting exercise, hyperkinetic but also hyperalert -doors, hallways, murals, numbers, locks, its exterior and emergency spaces. Everything that could have been ignored is instead revitalized at a pace that leaves the museum trail behind in order to focus on the day-by-day, in the ignored vigor of the simple everyday space. And here appears happy formalism, charmed by the corners (of the buildings and of Le Corbusier’s own work), that wants to share that same joy and that same demystification. JMD
