And for those who have the chance, see Jennifer Baychwal's documentary film "Manufactured Landscapes"
http://www.us.imdb.com/title/tt0832903/
The film opens with a 10 minutes linear travelling inside a 1km-long factory in China...!
The beauty of this film is that it provides a portrait of the photographer at work
showing considerable visual space all around the edges of Burtinsky's
giant pictures of the industrial landscape.
There is a long section on location of the Bangladeshi shipyard.
Best seen after visiting a gallery exhibition.
Burtinsky lives in Toronto
