the bootymachine 2007

More than 30 years after the creation of the Internet and following a reflection on modern connected digital devices this photographic work was part of a larger online multimedia project and tried to tackle new opportunities for photographical practices. Using the increasingly potent cameras of mobile phones the Bootymachine would let the photographer take a picture from his pocket wherever and whenever that would then go through computational techniques to modify and stylize its texture. The system would then publish it on an online web-based platform for it to be accessible to all.
