URBAN OUTFITTERS+ THE IMPOSSIBLE PROJECT

i hate having to hear again & again " why did you move back to Germany" especially hate hearing it from people who have been or lived in America .& i hate hearing no one have a good answerer to the question ,not even my mum can give myself or anyone who asks a answer ,& she is the one who doomed us to this .she doesn't want to hear it but it is the only truth.
i am sitting at the kitchen table watching the kitchen be built ;again.


I went on URBAN OUTFITTERS site today & They started the project,selling Polaroid cameras!
I have wanted one for a very long time .& was really exited but cant purchase one because(1) the American UO site only lets you pay with American credit cards which we don't have & the European site isn't involved in the project (2) my mum says its a cult object & thinks its absurd to purchase one because after i used up the film paper that comes with said camera i cant purchase more film paper .& i suppose she is right but i still very much want it .

" It was not a pretty picture in late 2008, when Polaroid, a brand synonymous with instant photography, ended production of their analog instant film and cameras. Realizing that the supply of existing Polaroid instant film would not last long, The Impossible Project came along and purchased Polaroid's Dutch factory - equipped with all of their machinery and equipment - with hopes of creating a new generation of Integral film (the type of film that makes iconic, white bordered instant photos). The Impossible Project will use new, efficient technologies to start production of a modern instant film that works with vintage and newer Polaroid instant cameras. In the meantime, we've gotten our hands on a very limited supply of some of the very last 779 Polaroid film in the world. Perfect for any instant photography lover or collector, this is your chance to take 10 more instant Polaroid photos before they become a thing of the past. The film has been stored in a climate controlled environment to ensure that each picture you take will offer instant gratification. Imported. Wipe clean. "-UO site
