Picture This!
External homepage: http://www.viktoria.se/fal/projects/photo/
The mechanical and optical constraints specific to analogue cameras have disappeared with the advent of digital technology but still limit the way we conceive photography. The Picture This! project aims at taking digital photography to the next level by developing new types of physical interactions with cameras, of visual representation, and of hybrid picture-viewing.
In Context Photography, a still camera captures the invisible context of a scene with sensors and translates it visually into the resulting picture, as you are taking it.
In BashoCam (basho for "location" and "bashment"), friends engage in a dislocated and networked performance by contributing to rhythmical loops of photographs taken on the spot.
Picture This! is funded through the Mobile Life SSF project.
