April 12, 2011The display is up (the photos) but the poster will be up on Thursday. 🙂
Since we’ve got negatives as our final photos I was very curious to see how they actually look like as normal black and white photos. So I inverted a few of the pictures in Photoshop and they look great!
Click here to download pages 35-57 from Art as Experience by John Dewey (1932). — “Experience occurs continuously, because the interaction of live creature and environing conditions is involved in the very process of living. Under conditions of resistance and conflict, aspects and elements of the self and the world that are implicated in this […]
Secret Balloons                                                Along with other interventions,Secret Balloons experience was taking place in Trinity Bellwoods Park on April 2nd,2011 at 12:00 . The field full of colourful balloons that were attached to the ground and risen up to the air, immediately captured people’s and children’s attention at the park. When curious observers were coming closer, they […]
I’ not sure that these photos should be on the pinhole camera website because they are not really about pinhole cameras; so I’m posting them here.
Talking lamps experience which was introduced by one of the groups involved a number of lamps set up in different places around the park. The lamps were wired and there was some kind of devise through which the person on the other end of the wire could communicate with people passing by. Usually experience went […]
Congratulation on the successful implementation of your Urban Intervention! A lot of you worked very hard to make it happen. Everyone I spoke with had a wonderful day in Trinity Bellwoods last Saturday, thanks to you (and the weather). I look forward to having one final chat with you on Friday about all of the […]

Building blocks for adults aims to promote fun in the kitchen again. These magnetic blocks can serve as both a fun toy and as a useful […]
Reid and I talked and since the photo’s turn out aren’t so great; we are thinking of not displaying them either in the restaurant of the lomography store. An option we came up with is that if we still decide to display them would be to make a collage and display them somewhere in OCAD. […]
Secret (ish) documentation will also be taking place so as to extend the life of this project but we don’t want to discourage participants from taking part or make them uncomfortable with cameras obviously in view. It is important for the class to monitor the leaf-cards as they’re being hung, as well as make sure […]
The images turned up pretty abstract, but there is a lot of variation in the tones and forms, so it will still make for a nice display.
This is just to remind everyone that we all need to meet up at the park for 11:30 tomorrow to get set up and ready for the urban intervention. Dayna, Reid, and I will be picking up the cameras and getting them down to Trinity Bellwoods where we will meet everyone at the Queen Street […]
If necessary, my phone number is: (647) 201-4255 I’ll be in the park 11:30-3:30. -Jesse
There will be six other Urban Intervention experiences taking place in Trinity Bellwoods Park on April 2. One final task that requires volunteers is the observation and documentation of these experiences, for discussion during our last class on April 8. I’ve prepared a form that can will help you perform this task. Part 1 features […]
