Eye Catching Polaroid Projects
I have always been a fan of Polaroid photography…when it was readily available and more expensive than my small budget could afford. It is great to see my love for the Polaroid art form is shared by many and that a movement is underway to bring the Polaroid technology back to life. I stumbled across some great work by Juan Felipe Rubio via an excellent article over at designworklife.

The Impossible Project – Hope for Polaroid Lovers
For Polaroid lovers, the dream can to an end in mid 2008 when Polaroid shut down production down its factory in Enschede, which had manufactured film cassettes for the SX-70 — the signature Polaroid camera that folds into a squat rectangle. However, due to its popularity and cult-like following, a small group of Dutch scientists and one Austrian salesman have dedicated themselves to the task of reinventing one of the great inventions of the 20th century — Polaroid’s instant film.
Impossible b.v. has been founded with the concrete aim to re-invent and re-start production of analog INTEGRAL FILM for vintage Polaroid cameras.
The Impossible mission is NOT to re-build Polaroid Integral film but (with the help of strategic partners) to develop a new product with new characteristics, consisting of new optimised components, produced with a streamlined modern setup. An innovative and fresh analog material, sold under a new brand name that perfectly will match the global re-positioning of Integral Films.
