SixBySeven: The Human Mobilography Project.

Mobilography: Employing technologies, which combine elements from the software, photographic and communication communities that enable free form, mobile photography to be created and instantly published to a broad range of services.

This is an ongoing “Internet of things” project that will evolve over the next few months, changing based on the interaction between the Mobilographer and you. Technological or cultural elements will be added, modified or removed as the evolution takes place. In this particular instance, a person is the “thing” connected to the internet.

 Interaction.

Interaction takes place through discussion, either face-to-face or with mobile devices. You can connect to the Mobilographer’s network using your mobile device or you can also use one of the mobile devices provided by the Mobilographer. Once on the ‘network’, you can control the camera’s shutter (take the image) and download or email the images.
