"Paradigm
Shift:
Contemporary bmx photography
Kay Clauberg , the editor/ photographer of Germany’s premiere BMX magazine
Freedom,
finally got off his ass after 7 years of wanting to do a coffee table style
book of BMX photography, and has recently arrived at a finished product. Kay
scoured the depths of his personal photo archives for what he calls ”Paradigm
Shift”. Kay’s aims with the book, aside from putting some really
nice images into a new format of media for BMX photos, was to someshow demonstrate
how the culture of BMX can be understood outside the confines of the BMX world.As
Kay bluntly put it “This book is not meant for the scene only”.
The book features a varied cross section of riders from Germany all the way
to California , and will be printed with text in both English and German."
