Some images of the project

The rest will be seen in the art book I'll be submitting with my gracious extension 

about to submit

So I have a good 14 images after sending them to a more global audience. I would have loved more but again...... people are useless. I posted a request on a public art page on Facebook and got a decent amount of curiosity from wannabe participants but only 1/3 actually replied and 1/2 of those actually did it. The other places I send a request was merely ignored so again I have deduced something that I have discovered time and time again with this assignment.... people are un reliable

Going for the book

Computer Generated Culture has become a major influence in all aspects of art and design. Photography is of course no exception to these changes. The introduction of Digital Cameras and Smart Phones has made the aspects of Photography easily obtainable for almost everyone as well as the creation of Editing Software such as Photoshop. With the aid of computers we have become adjusted to amazing images being easy to create out of thin air rather than actually going outside and looking for a breathtaking sight. The effort of capturing the surreal has become a waste of time as now anyone can just point any camera anywhere and use such editing software as Photoshop to create their ideal image of the world around them.

This Project was my way of gathering such information in order to explain and compare the views other people have of the world by allowing them to edit an image of a natural wonder in any way they saw fit. By doing so I hoped to express what the developments that computer generated culture has done to our values and expectations about the world around us and how easy it has become to change our reality into our own personal ideal view.
