and these are polaroid filters. and that's what they, in a sense, are 'cause they're made up of molecules in here which are crystal-- little crystal-- the crystals or molecules that are all lined up in one direction and will allow the light to pass through one way. i can kinda show you that with a lamp here and using tools. you can still see the light. these things must be lined up. what's coming through one comes through the other, but let me turn it. what happens right in there, gang? right in there. can you see that the light doesn't come through? or i can hold this like this and just turn this. comes through, comes through, comes through, doesn't come through. not so much, no much and now it's blocked up. ain't that nice? now, hc. how come? this is easy to see. it requires a knowledge of vectors, the arrows. let's take a look. let's suppose my lamp, my original polaroid, is like that. light coming through. what kind of light can it come through, gang? light hitting it is like this. like this that hits it-- but t

look at polaroid for example. polaroid has failed and gone. kodak has the printing and the inks. it has the paper. it has camera phone. but that's about it, really. as cameras go, it's done. >> what do you do with a kodak camera? very iconic, indeed. >> for the history books as well. >> the irish economy in the spotlight today. representatives from the e.u., the irish central bank in dublin to assess how ireland has been handling its recovery. reminding everyone that back in november ireland was forced to receive a bail-out of 85 billion euros. receiving that meant they had to take tough measures. they cut public sector pay. they had to increase taxes. the result, ireland is likely to get an "a" on the report card. the e.u. saying ireland had done more than anyone else to cut their debt. the likes of portugal and greece -- the irish economy was very sound. it really was. it was only the property bubble that got it into trouble. >> ireland was a celtic tiger, not because of its property boon but because it has a highly-educated work force, they are english speaking, they have conn

a rotary phone, type writer and polaroid camera.p all that babbling in the day that was worth hundreds of dollars and just wait for priceless responses. >> all these second and third-graders are from the boys and girls club in sacramento. none of them know about our hidden camera. >> it's weird. >> it's camera. >> like in the army, if they wanted to type it like that. >> it's when you touch one it moves. [ laughter ] >> oh, yes, we heard that jacob. >> what do you think? >> i was thinking i could get a genie out of here. >> it's called a record. >> a record. >> who do you think would use something like that back in the old days? >> i think god. [ laughter ] >> that is cassette tape. >> oh, yes, it says right here. >> this whole thing is called a walkman. >> it's not able to walk. >> it could be a walk woman if you want it to be. clearly the female empowerment of this group. >> what about a typewriter. >> oh, doing this. it writes on this. >> you say oh you know what we are talking about. you put paper in it. and you knew about the r

the polaroid workers had come in from doing things because remember polaroid with a camera that you use to take those photos of south africans that they had to carry around so the polaroid that polaroid workers came down here to meet with the congressional black caucus and they came down the day of the caucus meeting. they were very militant folks from the black caucus looking around and saying hey ron you go meet with them. yeah okay because i was a radical guy, right? so john conyers said, i will go with you. so he goes with me and we meet with the polaroid workers. and at the end of that meeting i said, we will work with you to introduce legislation to bring -- to south africa and that that was the first bill to bring sanctions in 1970, 71, 72 and there were only two sponsors, ron dellums and ron conyers. fast-forward to the 80's. he died on the foreign affairs committee are bringing out, reported out a pill. i believe that there are two factors over which everyone of us have absolute control. there are two factors of which i think we do have control. your fidelity, your faithfulness

an app that makes your photographs look like vintage polaroids. they got a billion dollars for that. for making your pictures look like crap. meanwhile poor tom from my space just announced he's selling his mom's polaroid camera on ebay for five dollars. a billion dollars -- i don't know. unless they have some faded washed out photos of mark zuckerberg killing a hooker, it doesn't make sense. if you said facebook acquired instagram, you'd think they were talking about a veneerial disease. so we told some senior citizens about it to get their take on it. >> today facebook acquired instagram. how do you feel about that merger? >> i have no idea. i don't know anything about it. i'm sorry. >> today facebook acquired instagram. how do you feel about that merger? >> about what? >> today facebook acquired instagram, how do you feel about that merger? >> i am 98 years old. >> how do you feel about the merger between facebook and instagram? >> huh. >> i'm not into any of that. >> huh. >> don't know anything about this new stuff. >> i'm not even sure i know

. >> the polaroid needs these voters badly. in 2008 he won the youth vote by 66%. >> but some of that enthusiasm has waned. just 45% say they have a high interest in the fall election. >> i think if obama loses the huge edge he has among youth it's going to be a very, very close election. >> count chocula is right. ( laughter ) ( applause ) good to see him getting work. good to see him getting work. this could be close for obama, and obama is clearly panicking. because on tuesday, in a blatant pander to the youth vote, obama went on the jimmy fallon giggle-time news hour to talk about his student loan policy. it was a pathetically successful ploy to be appealing. and fox news nailed him for it. >> he's on jimmy fallon slow jamming about a policy that is actually not going to help anybody. >> he needs to look presidential. does this make somebody sitting at home without a job, you know, without a home, or a home facing foreclosure saying, "i'm going to vote for him"? >> so lame, so unfunny. >> i just personally do not agree with

i started shifting away from using photographic images solely on photographic paper in frames or polaroidsand started looking for other methods and other ways of reproducing images on different sorts of surfaces, like glass, which is what i've been doing now. just printing on felt. i had been working with a printer in portland, oregon, and it was coming very close to the due date of the show, and he was unable to print it. the image was not coming up. it was very inconsistent. and the process, which was lithography, that we had been using, did not work. we didn't have the time, because we had already been working on it for about three months. what i needed was a process that would deliver more ink to the surface of the felt, and silk-screen provided that process. so we have this screen, which is a mesh. this screen is colored, and then we expose the screen so we have the image ready to go. so this machine has one squeegee, which is kind of a rubber blade. we help the ink be pushed through the mesh. and then we have a flood bar we'll bring back, and flood the screen back to the starting poi

like a polaroid picture from 1970s. so here, take a look at this picture of the bay bridge before instagramz then... take a look. here it is after. after the filter is applied abc 7's david louie is going join us live now to tell us more. >> and this is the largest accusation. >> and a sample helps underscore why it's become so popular and why there are 30 million users today. facebook spent $1 billion on it but reasons just beyond esthetics. instagram is more than a photo application. it let's fot yez -- people post photos on different social media sites. saying it provides valuable information about personal interests. >> taking photos of snow boarding i'm taking photos of cars face dook book going to be able to tap into the data. and victoria is the ceo of a marketing software company. photos are searchable and posted to promote popularity this will give it more value. the ceo wrote, quote, we don't plan to do many more of these in fi. but providing best photo sharing experience is why many people love facebook and a

it looks ike a black and white and a polaroid. can also take a new picture, change it up and share wit friends. >> jon: wow, that's really lame. [ laughter ] why is that this news. >> facebook buying the free smart phone mobile sharing app for $1 billion. >> jon: $1 billion of money? [ laughter ] for a thing that kind of ruins your pictures? [ laughter ] the only instagram worth $1 billion would be an app that instantly gets you a gram of uncut clom bean black coffee well. technology stories they make no sense to america i'm joined by the senior youth correspondent jessica williams. [cheers and applause] >> thank you very much. hello, jon. >> jon: ins instagram. how in god's name is that worth $1 billion? >> what? because it's awesome before instagram if i wanted my pictures to look like they were take innocent 60s, i would have to invent a time machine and travel back 50 years. do you know how much a time machine would cost to build? >> jon: i don't know how much. >> probably like $1 billion. not to mention the risks about changi

when i was a kid we had to duct tape a polaroid camera to our rotary phone. bonus t held 20 songs if you also hot glued a record player to it. and the best part about this little technological marvel is that it allows me to document my life wrefer i go from concerts to family gatherings, to spontaneous eruptions of applause for from my studio audience. (cheers and applause) how lucky i have this thing. sadly, even with my iphone there are still memorable moments that i miss. well, a swedish company has created a new device that will solve that problem. >> sometimes the best moments in life are the simple ones so we started thinking if we could build a camera small enough to never be in the way and smart enough to capture life as we live it. this is what we ended up with. the memoto life log camera. just clip it on and it starts taking pictures and all the pictures are safely stored on memoto's storage surface. >> stephen: at last. i cannot tell you how many times i've been buying printer toner at staples or pairing my socks and thought why am i not capturing

patti smith always traveled with her polaroid camera. now some of her photographs have gone on display in an exhibition in connecticut. in this first-person account, she talks to us about the inspiration behind the images. >> i never thought of myself and still cannot think of myself as a photographer. i think of myself as a worker, an artist who does different disciplines, but i do not know enough about the technology of photography or -- i just take the pictures that i want to see. when i think they are worthy, i will present them. we know that we have to make a living touring, but often, i like to choose places that i want to visit culturally or because a writer or artist or a musician, someone i admire, was born there. i do my concert at night. during the day, i tried to get something special. i have lost many, many people in my life. what do you do with all of that loss? some of it cannot be transformed as art. sometimes, i just have to feel the pain of not having my husband or my brother and robert mapplethorpe, who was almost my s

a $50 warhol, maybe just a polaro polaroid, or a $50 million war l ho.s like a vw strategy, where they'll sell a $16 million bull gaty. >> and you characterized what's coming on the market as warhol ephemera, sort of second tier works and maybe below that. does it affect the price, the value, i should say, of those bigger works? >> no, it will not in any shape or form. what's happening is at the highest level the market is stronger than it ever has been. what's p haing is with the emergence of billionairs coming out of the wood work almost every week and they want to get into it because they have enough yachts and race horses or girlfriends, so they decide to get into art. they don't know anything about it, but they know the brand names. who are the brand names? it's picasso and warhol. that's where they head. meantime, the foundation is making quite a lot of money. in addition to this auction taking place, they license. this may not be as well-known. i did some research. they're licensing everything from candies and clothing and perfumes and much was an
