About my work:
It’s sprouting color, form, light and shadow. A little emotion machine. But my hand and my head are needed to start. In my subconsciousness, I press strange buttons, choose modes and spin wheels. The obvious is boring, but maybe boring is annoying enough to be interesting. Guy Debord said: “Boredom is always counter-revolutionary” and meant that the division of private and work life produced something negative, boredom. In my spare time I love to use this black picture machine, it’s at least one tiny step towards being a creator, not a consumer. The camera is the extension of my mind, my brain, my experience and my eyes, I’m immersing myself in technology but I’m thinking about emotions and time. Maybe I will never see this place again. — Oliver Schneider

We don’t see things like a camera does.
We don’t care about a neutral grey.
We are aware of the impossibility of capturing cultures, things, persons or even minds. We don’t think this is working. Let’s stop thinking for a moment.
Let’s stop everything for a moment and taste rich cheese, black wine, bitter honey, soft rocks and green waters.

Interview mit David Hockney
http://www.spiegel.de/kultur/gesellschaft/0,1518,389005,00.html
„Fotografie ist ganz gut. Aber nicht gut genug. Viele Jahrzehnte lang haben wir gelernt, so zu schauen, als seien wir eine Kamera. Weil wir auf die Wirklichkeit nur noch mit Kamera, Digitalkamera und Handykamera schauen, fangen wir an, wie eine Kamera zu schauen. Wir sehen nur noch Bilder, die aussehen, wie die Bilder, die wir von diesen Fotografien kennen. Mit diesen Lichteffekten, diesen Schatten, diesen Eigentümlichkeiten. Ich glaube, wir müssen neu lernen zu schauen, zu sehen, wie die Wirklichkeit ist. Wir müssen lernen, die Spiegelreflexkamera in unseren Augen zu überwinden. Ich habe in den letzten Jahren versucht, meine Augen wieder neu zu trainieren – und nicht zu schauen wie eine Kamera. Glauben Sie mir, das ist verdammt schwer.“
Das Interview führten Amelie von Heydebreck und Florian Illies. SPIEGEL ONLINE hat den Text mit freundlicher Genehmigung des Kunstmagazins „Monopol“ übernommen.
