From Alec Soth:

The work I did in Silicon Valley is part of my larger collaborative project with the writer Brad Zellar entitled Dispatch. Brad and I have produced five issues so far (Ohio, Upstate, Michigan, Three Valleys and Colorado). Next month we’ll be doing The Texas Triangle. The Silicon Valley series was part of Three Valleys (the other valleys were San Joaquin and Death). Brad and I have become really interested in boom and bust economies. We’ve explored this in a number of stated. In Three Valleys, San Joaquin was once an agricultural boom economy. But it was harder hit than anywhere else by the housing crash and is definitely suffering. Silicon Valley, in contrast, continues to thrive as the archetypal California promise land. Brad and I photographed at a number of businesses there (Google, Facebook) as well the general social landscape.
