In this episode of Street Shots, Antonio and Ward sit down with photographer Ben Geier to talk about his book Viewing Hours. Ben has been photographing America’s vanishing culture—storefronts, motels, neon signs, and old theaters—bringing a mix of punk DIY energy and design sensibility to the work. The conversation digs into the stories behind his road trips, the role of chance in catching the right moment, and how his photos live somewhere between art and archive.

They also get into bigger ideas around nostalgia, memory, and impermanence, weaving in connections to Walker Evans and the Bechers while keeping the focus on Ben’s unique perspective. Antonio relates it back to his own move to Nebraska and the challenge of seeing with fresh eyes. What unfolds is an easy, thoughtful exchange about how personal history, design, and music shape the way we notice and photograph the world.
