What they say about duckrabbit:

'One of the hazards of publishing a well-known photojournalism blog - getting multimedia like yours, where the photos are both powerful and moving, and I end up in tears at my desk.'

Alan Taylor, Boston Big Picture)

'David White's multimedia work with duckrabbit is very exciting.'

Kate Edwards (Guardian Magazine Picture Editor)

'I am a fan of duckrabbit. I am not a fan because I agree with everything Ben has to say, but because he says it without frills and then will spend the time necessary to engage the consequent discussions. Such commitment is a priceless commodity.'

Prison Photography

'I met one of them at an academic conference in the summer. He was the sanest person there, but sure enough by damn gadnabbit ruffled more than a few fluffed up peacock feathers.'

The Photography Pages

'If you haven't seen the duckrabbit blog on multimedia you should.'

Stephen Alvarez

'duckrabbit has done another jaw-dropping job with Condition Critical, a highly commendable and important project for Medecins Sans Frontiers.'

Dedicated to the one I love

I featured the work of Mishka Henner and Liz Lock on duckrabbit a couple of days ago. I was drawn back to a series on their website this morning called Dedicated to the one I love, which explores the lives of some of the 50000 young people in Britain who have become their parents carers.  What’s really knocked me out is not the photos per se, but the way they combine with the text. That’s multimedia for you and it just goes to show that photographers shouldn’t be afraid to explore different ways to tell stories if they want to really cut through the noise.

duckrabbit would love to see this turned into an installation with sound. It would be very powerful.

Mishka and Liz, your work is an inspiration. A duckrabbit hats off.

Just spotted that Tom over at Photography Lot also spotted these guys last week, as has Joerg and Mark.

RESPONSE:

DESIREE:

Wonderful! So moving.

I agree with duckrabbit, I’d love to hear these brave kids’ voices too.

Juno:

Amazing! And yes please lets hear the children.
