Tanja Tiziana is a photographer in Toronto. She occasionally decides to have what she calls a “Freestyle Photo Shoot” wherein lots of people are invited to come in whatever getup they like with whatever props they want, and she proceeds to take some awesome pictures of the madness. One of her recent shoots had a noir theme, and Ryan was on hand to capture the event, as well as get a snappy pic taken (see about page). Thanks to Stephanie Tung for some of the footage!

Review of the show at blogTO
For our first episode, we tracked down Liam O’Doherty and a mini-mob of public space activists from the Toronto Public Space Committee’s Art Attack wing. During one of 2008’s worst snowstorms in early February, the group converged on a lonesome transit shelter in Leslieville to give it some beautifying love.
