Love cubes etc.. Love Cubes Interactive (requires Flash) is an online version of Love Cubes, a board game made by Martin Parr in 1972. It is posing the endlessly fascinating question of how we choose our partners. [Found via weblog wannabe -- considering how much I admire Martin Parr's work, it is, however, a true shame that I didn't find this myself.] Martin Parr is arguably the most influential and innovative figure in British social documentary photography. A retrospective of his work was recently shown at the NMPFT in Bradford (catalogue here). He also curated an exhibition on the John Hinde Butlins photographs shown recently at the Photographers' Gallery in London -- a weird glimpse at British holidays in the 1960s and 70s (truly excellent catalogue here).
