CURATED PRINT SELECTION
Mobile Masters Second Edition
Dan Marcolina / 2014




Mobile Masters is a 2 year old venture created by Dan Marcolina to reveal the best
art and tech of this new underground mobile photo movement. It started last year at Macworld when Dan brought together over a dozen of the highest pro le artists devel- opers and bloggers to reveal their processes and passion in an epic 9 hour workshop, the largest gathering of mobile talent to date. A er which a companion interactive iPad eBook was created (shown to the right) that captured even more detail from the invit- ed artists, and has been sold in over 60 countries. This year along with another epic Macworld workshop he decided to do an open call for entries into the eBook. This cre- ated a way to gather a more diverse and undiscovered group of work. Dan says “it was less of a contest and more of a collection and curation process with a minimal fee to support the creation of this show and folio.”
The Results A er quite a long, loving journey through thousands of images from 32 countries and 323 individuals the six judges have boiled it down the nal featured artist shown in this edition. Present throughout the work was a consistent high level of skill and imagination! There were many people who were right on the verge of making the cut and no one should feel dis- couraged to not have made it. This new chapter in photography has really just begun... the pos- sibilities and opportunities for the future are wide open. A er you browse through these prints and the eBook I think most of you will agree, the bar was pretty high.
