Cellular Imaging

Side work, snippet of a paper i wrote.

"Just like the telephone, Multimedia services allow us to be in contact with another person with out the direct confrontation that talking in person would hold. We are freer to communicate imagery and content through a 3^rd person object resulting with a less censored exchange. People in today’s culture grab onto a cell phone like a cigarette we must always be in constant contact with our phones just in case we need to send a quick text or make an emergency call. Now that all of these portable phones are connected with a camera think of it this way: our vice is now to constantly be in physical contact with a camera or video camera. Think of the impact this could make on our society if millions of people were photojournalists, documenting life around them. In essence, this is what the camera phone is, except it is not limited to middle aged men and women but to all ages and races and status levels. Now that we have the beginning of a huge archive of digital images dating from 2004 onward, what will these images mean to society? Thousands of poor quality records of personal and public events are starting to create a new subculture of a Cell Phone genre. Documentation of high and low society can bring a lot of cultural issues into the face of the public, and to mass amounts of people instantly. "

So here are some images that i haven't really fit into my series yet. I was going through them all and i figured it might be nice to put them out there just for kicks and giggles.

a round about photo.

Here's a fun way to create a final product: take an original photo -- digitally print it 1 time as a digital negative, then print as a silver gelatin print, photograph, scan, enlarge, reprint as a digital negative, and then print in the dark room once more. take final image and then set on fire.
