3.13 - Shannon Taggart

Description
In this episode, photographer Shannon Taggart joined us to discuss her epic project on Spiritualism, her fascination with mystery and the occult, intentionally making mistakes in photography, a few brilliant photobooks and we end with perhaps the most fascinating theory about Michael Jackson that you'll ever hear. Shannon is an old friend of co-produce/audio engineer Tom Starkweather, and the spouse of season 2.29 guest Ralph Smith. When I dug into her Spiritualism project I was mesmerized and knew we were in store for a great conversation. I believe when she completes this project and publishes the book, it'll be a classic. For the photobook segment, we discussed The Morbid Anatomy Anthology, Casa Susanna, The Perfect Medium: Photography and the Occult, and Midnight by Arlene Gottfried. Thanks, once again to Brett A. Davis for joining us for the conversation and making some memorable photographs. To view the book spreads and behind the scenes photos, visit blog.lpvshow.com  Recorded March 18th, 2016 at Stockholm Studios in Bushwick, Brooklyn
