Thomas Campbell: Slide Your Brains Out: Surfing in General 1997-2012 (UM YEAH ARTS) Hardcover – October 31, 2012

This bloke makes fantastic movies that make you get off your bum and go surfing and now a book that does the same except now you want to be a photographer as well . Love it

Great artist, amazing photographer and just a relly good book!

I don't know what the author was trying to prove by putting a binding to a bunch of over-exposed photos but I'd rather have any issue The Surfer's Journal gracing my coffee table than this..."book" or whatever it is.

Great art work ….. Such a great artist

I'm a huge fan of surf books, they get my adrenaline pumping. But unlike the straightforward documentary style of most publications, Thomas Campbell's "Slide Your Brains Out" (awesomely titled) is like an acid trip on a sunny day at the beach. The colors are warm and vibrant and capture the righteousness of surf culture and the ecstatic joy of catching a wave. Campbell's name might be familiar because he was part of the Beautiful Losers scene. The majority of his published works are on his colorful, playful and downright trippy art, like Gingko Press' "From UMMMM to DER: Recent Works and Installations of Thomas Campbell." But this book was a pleasant surprise and has me stoked for summer to get on started!

サーフィンは自分自身したことありませんが、この本を見てるとサーフィン仲間とサーフィンをしてるような錯覚に陥ります。どの写真も割と入り込める写真ばかりで、脳内サーフィンをかなり楽しめます。
