Let's all shoot 1 camera and see what happens

[M. Walter Lyon]

Any updates on where she is?

 

[roteague]

I think Eric still has it. I'm on the list after him, I think.

 

[gr82bart]

So what's happening here?

It looks like Eric still has it.

I did an unscientific calculation and estimated that the camera (at this pace) would arrive round 11/11/2005 in Belgium. And in the same calculation I found that Nicole B. would have it round Christmas 2005. Isn't that nice ?

Argh! I didn't know there was a protocol to do that!

[M. Walter Lyon]

Any word....? Starting to get a wee bit discouraged

We still have the second camera that was slated for the same list after the first one went temporarily into the post office's black hole. Greg, I have that one, let me know whether/when I should send it on.

Is the quantity/quality of problems with this camera par for the course, or do we need to adjust the project in the future? Any thoughts from someone who has participated in shared camera projects in other venues?

Well, the (there was a url link here which no longer exists) camera has left the States, been to Germany, and is on it's way to Norway.

I guess it's a combination of the whether the Post Office gods smile upon you, and whether the participants will just take the darn picture and send it on to the next person.

Eric posted the other day in the "Miscellaneous" category. See this thread.

Don't know why he posted there, but I will pm him again to find out if he has sent the camera on its way.

I received the camera today; I'll be out shooting on Sunday so, I'll take my picture and mail it onto fingel on Monday.

 

[roteague]

Update, the camera is on its way via Priority Mail to fingel (should be there in 3 - 5 days).

 

[John Bartley]

I know that I'm waaaayyyy down on the list, but if I don't post this now, I'll forget later.

so::

I'll be away on holidays the last week of September and the first week of October, but.....will get it in and out as soon as I receive it

cheers

 

[fingel]

Hey, just wanted to let everyone know that I got the camera and will be shooting something with it as soon as I think of what to shoot.

 

[M. Walter Lyon]

WOW! I am getting excited now! It is nearly within my grasp!

 

[kwmullet]

I just had an idea. Does anyone else think this would be cool? Include a blank notebook (like a Moleskine or something similar) in with the next camera and after each person takes their shot, but before they seal up the package, they add to the first-person narrative from the point of view of the camera about it's travels and what it 'experienced' with each person, then when the images from the camera go up on the web, they can be illustrations to a transcribed "what the camera saw".

 

[Nathan Smith]

Good idea. Perhaps Sean can come up with a nifty on-line format for this: a portfolio of all the shots taken, along with a log book that we can fill in - retroactively in this case. We'd want this for both Round 1 and Round 2, and maybe later versions yet to come.

Hi all I'm posting to let everyone know that I got the camera in yesterday's mail. I have an idea for a shot and will send it off to the next person on the list in a couple of days. Wish me luck!

 

[gr82bart]

I just wanted to post the route again, 'cause I was tired of searching for it!
