The Impossible Project: The Re-Invention of Instant Film


Remember when Polaroid made the switch from analog to digital cameras? It was a really long time ago... Like 3 weeks or something crazy. Well it turns out that some intrepid folks in the Netherlands have acquired a former Polaroid factory located in Enschede, NL, and are planning to restart production next year. The Impossible Project is not aiming to produce the same film, but aims instead "to develop a new product with new characteristics, consisting of new optimised components, produced with a streamlined modern setup."

Learn more about The Impossible Project as well as lend your support here. Also check out the archives for a look at Polaroid's new digital instant camera, set for release this year.
