I think that contemplating that pain in advance (How much do I really want to take this shot? Will it be worth the pain or not?) and then feeling it (Ouch!) became a key part of the process. So, now that Impossible is making new films, perhaps they need to think about ideas like this - ways to bring some pain back into the process. Perhaps there should be some cameras with slimy, noxious coatings that cause skin rashes. A shutter release that causes electric shocks. A viewfinder that squirts a tiny jet of mace at you.

Well, i guess it all starts with this one then !!

2011-04-13 // 00:51:30 edulterado A lovely ready-made object, very smart on its way of proposing a reverse idea for the TIP film. The-impossible project is so inspiring itself as a concept to play with. For instance, another "dada" intuition more to be explored: if some IP film has to be heated up in your hands or with your corporal temperature such as putting it behind your armpit, will Impossible develop a film to put inside your ass for heating it up? A kind of PX (P-exposed) film suited for that experimental purposes or so... who knows? I donīt want to be a tester for such a film!

THAT WOULD BE A PX-TiCKL FILM !!
