I found this site a little while ago. I think that there is a good chance it is already out of comission, but it is still up, available, and pretty bloody amazing, in my opinion." In March of 2004 the Found Photos project came together on accident, by using a filesharing program seeking music and finding hundreds of photos in a folder instead. 120 Archives of photos have been created since then, each containing an average of 50+ photos hand selected from an average of 5000+ photos per archive. All photos displayed were publicly shared. " I'm well aware of the found object craze, but there is something about this site and the images that are selected to be shown that just makes sense. That's all I have.

Brilliant. Son of a bitch, it makes me mad because I don't have one fifty to just spend on this book, but wayne has two or three of his other books so I guess I'll be heading there next.
Thanks, love.
