When I photographed Merry with this camera, the resulting image distorted everything except Merry into hideous shapes. The familiar campus, the buildings crammed into a 31-meter height, the lukewarm river flowing through the city- all were adorned with tasteless objects, failing to capture their true forms. Only Merry smiled perfectly amidst it all. I borrowed Merry's camera and decided to photograph her for as long as the film lasted. I couldn't just leave such an interesting camera alone... that was partly a pretense, but perhaps the other half was that I wanted to believe somewhere deep down that I could conquer this mystery.
