Zoë F. Wolfe's use of the Game Boy Camera combines their other hobbies into something that hasn't been seen before.
Over the course of the pandemic, people have flocked to their creature comforts, and sometimes, that means retro games. Similarly, some have taken the opportunity to create new things for retro gaming platforms or using peripherals. That includes the Game Boy Camera.
The right Game Boy for the job Wolfe, like so many others during the pandemic, got back into retro games over the course of their own lockdown. “I was having a good depression period, watching a lot of gaming YouTube,” Wolfe tells Digital Trends. They eventually got their own Game Boy and quickly found an interest in Game Boy modding, all because they wanted to play Metroid Fusion and Metroid: Zero Mission.
Where other photographers would take high-end cameras, Wolfe would bring their Game Boy Camera. “I went to an artist meetup at a zoo, and I brought my Game Boy Camera. I took a whole 30 photos on it, which is all it fits. I was the weird person hanging over the edge with a modded Game Boy,” Wolfe says.
Glitched out There’s a solid chance you’ve never heard of glitch art, and nobody could really blame you. It’s an extremely niche genre of digital art, one that Wolfe experiments with even further by making it analog.
