Babycakes Romero and Alex Schneideman discuss:
The first half of this conversation is about is working practises - how he manages to remain productive across so many media. The second half is all about his trial sensation, 'The Death of Conversation' which is a series of street shots that show people lost to the world around them as they gaze lovingly at their smart phones. Babycakes is questioning whether this relationship between human and phone is a good thing. The series stock a chord and, in 2014 and 15 he found himself a regular contributor to news items on the subject and it all culminated in a Ted Talk. In the course of a year his life changed as millions of people clicked on his images.
