Instagram has a tendency to make many photographs more interesting than they actually are. The retro film effects prey on our sense of nostalgia, making even the most run-of-the-mill, poorly composed photograph appear to be something timeless and worth further attention. This site applies these same digital filters to iconic images taken by highly regarded photographers through the ages. It's an experiment done primarily for my own amusement, but I'm also interested in finding out how these digital manipulations alter our perceptions. If the Instagram effect can make mundane images appear to be works of art, what happens when we apply the same filters to images that have historically been held in high regard? Mastergram is the creation of photographer Andrew Emond.

Les photos (comme celle ci-dessous) provoquaient immédiatement un sentiment de nostalgie et une sensation d’authenticité qui manque souvent aux photos numériques postées sur les réseaux sociaux. Hipstamatic a été la première application très populaire à rendre les photos instantanément rétros. Poètes et Scribes. An 80-page dissertation on what makes Instagram tick - TNW Industry. I’m on the couch, watching TV, but I couldn’t tell you what’s playing. I have no clue what’s been said or done during the show because the entire time it’s been on, I’ve been browsing through Instagram. Apparently I’m not alone. At last public count, Instagram users numbered over 5 million and it continues to grow every day.
But what is it about this app that sets it over the top? There’s no short answer to these questions, and Master’s Cantidate at Cambridge University Zachary McCune knows that better than just about anyone. McCune spent time at a London Instagram meetup, as well as examining the behavior of people who use the app. McCune notes in his findings that people often share photos on Instagram for the very same reasons that they do otherwise — to share in experiences with others. McCune’s findings are pared down in a 5-page executive summary which I’ve embedded here.
Consumer Production in Social Media Networks: Executive Summary. Why Is Instagram So Addictive? Full disclosure: our appreciation and love for Instagram is still strong. With 5 Million users (on the iPhone-only platform) at last count, the photo-sharing app continues to captivate users, brands and media properties alike. Granted, the latter two are still just starting to experiment and determine what role it can best play in their communications strategy.
And we have not yet seen any user engagement/user metrics, i.e., how much time users are spending on the platform to date, how many photos are submitted on a daily/weekly basis by the average users, how has this increased/decreased over time, etc.). But the fact that Instagram continues to represent a significant opportunity is clear. On the note of engagement, our curiosity was caught by a recent piece by The Next Web, informing us of a Cambridge University student’s 80-page dissertation analyzing how Instagram has become the phenomenon it has become.
