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.'

Tonight I found myself on YouTube watching Martin Luther King’s famous “I have a dream” speech.
Take a look at the advert running in the Left Hand Corner:
I’m not sure why I’m shocked.
Asim Rafiqui says it so much more eloquently here, but really all our wealth is built on the fact that the people on [...]

I have to say, I think Magnum in Motion are really on top of their game at the moment. For something like the third time in as many weeks they’ve produced a beautiful little multimedia piece, this time about 2nd tour soldiers in Iraq and Afghanistan. Shot by Peter van Agtmael – do check it [...]

Here’s a nice competition, woo, you get to win a camera. I could do with one of those.
It’s got a catchy title: Science: So what? So everything.
Could be good. It’s backed by the government, that staunch defender of our rights (Eh?Ed) It’s getting interesting.
They’ve got a pretty website. They even have a sweet write up:
“Can [...]

One of the things we feel strongly at duckrabbit is the importance of the web in giving people a voice who otherwise wouldn’t be heard. Its important if the world is ever going to move on from the belief that what keeps people alive in developing countries is our pity and our cash.

“I don’t think there is any one photograph that can encompass the loss that people suffered. I think there comes a time when you need to have a group of images or a combination of words, of audio, video and stills to hit you on all senses for you to really [...]

I haven’t got a clue what these people are going to do? I would have thought we’ve got enough people to go around at [...]

BLACK FRANCIS (of Pixies Fame)

I was at symposium last week in New York where Brian was speaking, and really for a moment I thought he was going to break into a chorus of ‘Where is my mind’. The likeness is uncanny.

Until we agree that it is intolerable to continue witnessing horrific events without exploring their causes and putting them in context, to have one’s imagery selected by others to emphasize the sensational at the expense of the more nuanced and authentic, as well as having photographs miscaptioned to simplify and distort, photojournalism will become an [...]
