circuit bored records Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Yeah, I'm not playing my records when I post. Didn't know it was a prerequisite for this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SBarry Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I like the video idea! I've never even thought of that. Yeah man I even started using vidstitch so I can post videos along with pictures all in one collage type deal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
paynegretzky Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Yeah, I'm not playing my records when I post. Didn't know it was a prerequisite for this. Same. It would be difficult to take a nice picture of my record and its cover with my current setup. Even if it were different, I would think the cover or record itself should suffice as long as you're not just copying a picture off the internet.

cbbrew22 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 The only possible J I have is John Carpenters Halloween OST. I'll let you guys decide if that counts. Might steal this if I can't come up with sn alternative lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swisherprice Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 With my first off day in a while tomorrow, I'm debating starting and playing catch up on this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
avery Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 i honestly don't have time to play my records every single day though i wish i did. maybe the 7"s but definitely not a full length. when i do have time though, i can usually put a few on and enjoy them all in that chunk of time. i barely even have the time to take a pic a day but another reason i like this photo a day challenge is that it gets me to think more about what all is in my collection and then i'll remember to put aside something that i've forgotten about and haven't listened to in a very long time. i did notice the signed grooves and the fingers all over the grooves in some pics, haha.

caninesapien Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Didn't realise playing the records/making videos was supposed to happen. I'm putting pictures up of collages of album sleeves or sleeve details as well as a picture of the record or label. Makes it neater I think but whatever Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
steventangent Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I posted the most amazing picturedisc I own. It was almost immediately liked by a sushi restaurant. videogamesandvinyl 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jimmyg Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 If I take photos of the records playing, I'm gonna have 31 identical photos. Tryiing to do something different with each one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
slinch Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I posted 28 Days Later. I just searched through the ig pics specifically to find this and drop a like. Awesome piece! TFP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweetJerryWine Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 My turntable right now doesn't have a great setup to display for a picture. So for now I'm just taking the picture on my sweet deer tapestry. I've got some jacket display shelves on the way so I'll start doing it that way when they eventually show up.

hippielauryn Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 A couple of things grinding my gears. People not playing the records they're posting. And people posting CDs, tapes, DVDs and iTunes lists. It defeats the purpose of the whole thing. Play your damn records people I think my favorite thing about the record a day is that I play each record I post each day. Even though it may not be a picture of me playing the record, I still take the time to spin it. nick6ten, caninesapien and onlettingjoe 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

serum7 Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Missed yesterday because my brother-in-law ended up staying in the room where my setup is. Going to combine yesterday and today into one pic. Wah... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually when I'm searching for things I want to post I'll pull out two or three to listen to that night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
deafening Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I think you guys are trying to put too many imaginary rules into this. I'm not spinning any of mine because I don't want 31 of the same picture like someone already pointed out. I enjoy composing pictures. This is fun for me in a photography sense. and I'm not spinning anything until I get a new table as an incentive to save money. do whatever the hell you want.

kyacrash Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Personally I am not a fan of videos, they sound shitty and don't visually display anything enjoyable about the records, which to me is the point. I enjoy seeing pictures of records, whether they are taken in the same spot every day or not, they are still different records. Also, just because the picture is not taken on the turntable does not mean the record wasn't played. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nick6ten Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 For me, most of the fun from doing this is listening to some records that don't get played very often. I'll usually pick a record, take a picture or two, put it on, post a picture while listening to it, and then check out this thread. hankholetsgo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 These picture disc posts are kicking a lot of ass so far. I have 3, and cannot decide which one I want to use. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is fun for me in a photography sense. and I'm not spinning anything until I get a new table as an incentive to save money. do whatever the hell you want. Unless you post the same record 31 times, it won't look the same. You can still get creative with composition. You just need to be...uh creative I guess. It's obviously not a rule they need to be played, just something that grinds my gears. Kind of like people that frame records, or have the actual record signed. It seems pointless to me. Music was made to be listened to, not just kept on a shelf and brought out for 30 seconds while the owner gets arty for an Instagram photo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IanRees Posted January 6, 2014 Author Share Posted January 6, 2014 i wasnt expecting the picture disc one to be so popular, theres a lot of cool stuff. Too bad they don't sound better. oh yeah and, 6000! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jase Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 Although, with that said. I have no idea how I'm going to do today's collection picture. It'll likely have to be several photos, or maybe even a video walking down my hallway past all the records laid out on the floorboards Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted January 6, 2014 Share Posted January 6, 2014 I just see this whole thing as an exercise in showing off the different nooks and crannies of our collections Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I guess I might be slightly spoilt in my living situation. My two housemates love music, I live 30 seconds walk from work and above some stores. So I don't have to be mindful of any noise complaints Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
