The Camera Conundrum by Ian Kizu-Blair, Sean Mahan, Sara Johnsen, qwerty uiop

January 2nd, 2007 4:15 PM

INSTRUCTIONS: Procure a disposable camera and group of collaborators. Take the camera around town, snapping pictures. They could be a series of simply odd snapshots, or they could tell a sequential narrative, or somewhere in between.

Leave the camera, undeveloped, in a public space with a note attached. The note could sumplement the mysterious narrative with clues, or it could simple say, a la Lewis Carroll: "Develop Me."

If possible, document results.

Noisy metal boxes! Cats in and out of bags! Magnification of hidden, libelous HTML! Spray-painted mugs with the wrong SF0 phone number on them that just sit at our apartment now! Recursively searching forever for things that don't exist! Filth bordering on abjection! Long, white hallways impervious to cellphone signals! And yes - even a Frank Chu sighting. It's all there waiting to be developed at the intersection of Grant, O'Farrell, and Market!

The pictures were taken December 30th & 31st (and the Frank Chu picture on Jan 2nd), as a deadline for getting the new site up meant we had to actually do all those things left on the various to-do lists, and then actually fix at least some of the bugs, typos, and disinformation that Sara tracked down.

So where'd you leave the "camera, undeveloped, in a public space with a note attached"?

;-)

Otherwise, great photos. It's great to see how many cigarettes run this site. The meow cat always a bonus.

The camera is a little mostly-green splotch nestled on a newspaper rack in the last picture. Admittedly, I forgot to leave a note!

To be honest I wouldn't have seen it if you didn't tell me ;)
Sweet job though :)
