“In 1978 I decided not to work with Man Ray as an act of self-discipline. I didn't want to rely on him. Man Ray hated not working, though. He would come into my studio, see me drawing or working on photographs, and just slump down at my feet with a big sigh. Fortunately for both of us the year ended. Polaroid had invented a new camera, the twenty-by-twenty-four, and I was invited to Cambridge, Mass., to experiment with it. Naturally, I took Man Ray and we were working again.” MenWantYearsSelfBigsFourFeetDisciplineMassDecidedTwentiesCamerasPhotographStudiosDrawingExperimentsHatedRelyRaysSelf DisciplineSighInvitedCambridgeSlumpsPolaroids Author:William Wegman
“My take on what happened with the moon landing was [......] they suspect [ sic ] that on impact that the cameras would be damaged because back in 1969 cameras weren't, you know, like they are today, as good. So they had a studio set up at CBS to mimic the moon landing. And sure enough the cameras broke and so they flipped, you know, the CBS studio on. And what you saw of the footage of the '69 moon landing was actually at CBS studio.” KnowsEnoughWould BeTodaySawsHappenedMoonCamerasImpactStudiosBrokeSuspectsLandingFlippedMoon Landing Author:Kent Hovind

“I always felt that if you're not trying something different each time out of the gate, you're being safe, and you don't ever want to find that place of safety.

“TV is a different animal. It's not a club set. As you said, you do short sets on TV - about five minutes.

I had to know how that film got into the cutting room, what you did to it in there, how you projected it, how you finally got the picture together, how you made things match.
