um is anyone going to post anything?
again:


I am looking for any pictures taken with camera phones.

I am looking for pictures of people or places. They can be pictures you do not consider to be good or interesting, they can be blurry or unfocused, they can be bad quality.

I will ask your permission if I want to use your image for the exhibition



this is the explanation for the project, that i wasn't allowed to give a link to:





I am an undergraduate student in Studio Arts at Concordia University in Montreal, Canada

I lived in Pakistan until the age of 12 and moved here 7 years ago.

I visited Pakistan for the first time this summer, and something that really interested me was people’s obsession with cell phones, and how cell phones have changed how people communicate and interact with each other. Most of these cell phones also have cameras, and I was interested in how people can become creators and transmitters of visual information.

I am collecting images that people have taken with their phones, by posting on message boards and sending out emails. These are low-resolution and relatively banal images of the everyday, in comparison to sensational images we see on television of ‘over there’.

What happens to these images when they are taken out of context? They become a document of a time and a culture. And when they are introduced into an ‘art’ context and into the ‘Western’ world, they take on a whole new importance because they become part of history. Histories are made by documentation, and histories are largely created by the Western world. However, I do not claim to offer an objective view of a youth culture or a place because I am still a mediator for the transportation and transmission of these pictures.

I will choose 10 images that I will print at 24 X 18”. I find the scale and the printing of these necessary, as opposed to having them available in a virtual format. They need to be permanent, physical, and occupy space. These 10 images will be shown at Art Mur, a gallery in Montreal, Canada, as part of Concordia University’s Art Matters festival in March.

well..i'm looking for pictures of..real life..not of other pictures..
