From 22-23 October, London's East Gallery at Brick Lane will be hosting the first ever UK exhibit of Instagram photos. Dubbed "My World Shared", the exhibit is organized by the London branch of Instagrammers, a community of Instagram users who offers tips and techniques and organizes "photowalks" and other social events for their users. The exhibit will host photos from 30 participants. Instagram has been growing like a weed in the last year or so: in August, the service celebrated its 150 millionth photo, just nine months after the iPhone application first landed in the App Store. Recently, Instagram launched a completely overhauled mobile app with a number of interesting new features, including the possibility of taking high resolution photos, live filters and more.
11 Months, 3000 pictures and a lot of coffee. I wish I had this much patience when rebuilding engines. | Bilgidrom 8Google + 5StumbleUpon Chris Herridge. Started out as just a collection of snaps as I stripped down an engine bought off ebay. (To replace my old engine, which had suffered catastrophic failure). The snaps were so that I remembered how everything went, so I could put it back together again. Then I realised it’d be quite cool to make it an animation. found some suitable music, rekindled my ancient knowledge of Premiere, storyboarded it, shot it as I worked on the engine (my poor DSLR got covered in engine oil), this was the result. The music is “In The Hall Of The Mountain King” from Edvard Griegs “Peer Gynt Suite” I own a suitable license for this piece of music, supplied by Chris Worth Productions Featured by Bilgidrom Featured by user 8googleplus 5stumbleupon

Photo: Courtesy of 20×200 Five years ago yesterday, Jen Bekman founded 20×200 on the belief that everyone should be able to collect art, and that the internet could help them do so. While neither the oldest nor the biggest place to buy prints online (art.com has been peddling prints for over a decade), her curated site, along with several other upstarts, represent a rapidly changing attitude and approach towards how art is marketed, bought and sold, a domain that Bekman says has lagged behind in its adoption of online retailing. “Art as a business category remains one of the few industries that has largely been undisrupted by technology,” says Bekman. “Now, a lot more people are comfortable both collecting art in general and also collecting art online, because of what we’ve done over the last several years.” But 20×200 is far from alone. Art on Etsy is a little different than 20×200; it’s not curated. Mille Fleurs, Brea Sounders’ first print on 20×200.
Literatura versus tráfico en Melbourne / Literature versus traffic in Melbourne Image Fred Kroh. El pasado mes de junio, nos trasladamos a Melbourne para llevar a cabo una gran instalación, la más grande hasta ahora para nosotros, dentro del festival Light in Winter. La temática elegida por el festival para este año ha sido “la lectura”, por lo que nos pidieron que lleváramos a cabo Literature vs Traffic, una pieza que ya habíamos instalado en New York de forma subversiva y que nos ofrecían la oportunidad de ampliar y hacer crecer durante un mes. Hasta la otra punta del mundo nos fuimos, pasando del soleado verano madrileño a un suave y lluvioso invierno, con la romántica intención de convertir la moderna y fría arquitectura de Federation Square, en un espacio acogedor, humano e íntimo, que invitara a lectura y al recogimiento. ¿El fin de esta pieza? La noche final, el río desbordado de libros, fue ofrecido a los visitantes que se tomaron su tiempo eligiendo entre los miles instalados los más interesantes para llevarse a casa.
