Photographer: Mikael Kennedy, Age: 32, Base: Brooklyn, New York and a 1995 Chevy G20 Van, is known for: ‘My Polaroids.’

What’s on your mind? Wildness. Your latest tweet? A Kerouac quote: “I see a vision of a great rucksack revolution, thousands or even millions of young Americans wandering around”. On top of your to-do-list? “Columbia” with a “?” after it. Your song of the moment? “Coming Los Angeles” by Arlo Guthrie. Bookmarked anything lately? “nope”. Your latest discovery? Andrew Wyeth. What don’t we know about you? There’s a lot, the lines are pretty blurred. You are addicted to? Travel & Coffee. Where do you find magic? In the light. What would this last question be if you were the one asking? I suppose “where to next?”

This short interview with photographer Mikael Kennedy was lost in digital translation for many months and could finally be recovered. Mikael and I met in Spring 2011 at Little Skips in Brooklyn New York. To be continued soon with more of our talk on photography in the digital age.

(Mikael Kennedy’s work ‘The Odysseus‘, a series of American landscapes taken during the years of 2007-2010, will be on view this February at Studio Christensen in Philadelphia. Opening Reception, February 10, 6-9pm.)
