comparisionSleeveface VS Dear Photograph
What they are?Both are elements of online photography- uploading and experiementing with photography. Both use photography to manipulate a meaning. Sleeveface manipulates the mind into believing the record head imitates the character on the ‘sleeve’ as if they are really them. Whilst Dear Photograph is more sentimental. It is made to create memories, reminding people of the time it was shot and how things have changed now.
“Sleeveface is a photo of one or more persons obscuring or augmenting any part of their body with record sleeve(s) causing an illusion and extending the original artwork” -sleeveface.com
Dear Photograph “Take a picture of a picture from the past in the present.” -facebook.com/dearphotograph

Sleeveface; Be the VinylSleeveface; Be the Vinyl, is a book written by founder Carl Morris and friend John Rostron explaining how
Sleeveface came about, how to do it and showing examples of peoples’
