Cell Phone 'frames' and clusters: another idea! Been looking for ways to connect images made with all different kinds of media. My cell phone has been a device that connects and frames all kinds of imagery, including pictures of hand-made art, photos I've taken on the street, funny blips appropriated from the internet-- more and more, the cell phone or computer monitor is becoming a lens through which I view the world...
After taking Oliver Wasow's course, Visual Remix, I believe that owning a smartphone or ipad or laptop means becoming curator and creator of all kinds of images. With increasingly sophisticated cell phone drawing programs (I'm a fan of Draw Something and Doodlebuddy) and photo apps such as Instagram, the lines between pop culture, personal documentation and fine art continue to blur.

| Step 1: measure and draw i-phone template. Then carve linoleum stamp. |
 |
| Step 2: cut images to size, glue to paper, and, using a hand-drawn measuring block for accuracy, stamp cell phone 'frames'. |
 |
| Side project: filled this 64 page notebook with stamps. 1 Photo per page. Going to treat it as a journal... |
