 The current trend of the web are community building websites which let 
the visitors share and rate content over the internet. For instance 
flicker.com is for sharing pictures and youtube.com allows the 
distribution of homemade videos, two prominent brands of the socalled Web 2.0.


This installation relys on the visitor to share content, not over the 
web but from his mobile phone via bluetooth. Pictures can be sent to the 
installation via Bluetooth and in return it sends back a current 
snapshot of what is shown. The pictures where used to create animated 
visuals by overlaying and processing but also analysed to create 
electronic sounds from the content. Each picture acts as graphical 
notation and the currently used for soundgeneration are accented visually.
Technically it is made with a Linuxcomputer with custom software and a 
bluetooth connector, projection with videoprojector and a soundsystem.
It relys on the audience to interact with, so it would be interesting to 
show it not in an isolated white cube context, it is prefered on public 
places like in a shopping window/mall to create an intervention and to 
reach a different audience.
