Well, I have an artschool assignment for a mail-art project - the basis being I need to send something through the post unpackaged (so with the stamp, address etc... on the object itself) and a few people to add something to it along the way.

I decided to send a disposable camera, and hope that some of you will take some photos - but I need a few extra people to help me out. I will gladly refund your postage expenses should you require it.

If you want to help out, at some stage you will recieve the camera through the mail (I'll email you to let you know). I would need one shot through a window in your apartment, one shot of something random in the apartment, one photo of a person, and then three random photos of your choice (eg. of another person, of clouds etc...)

Let me know if you would be interested in helping me out here. You would need to be willing to send it on to someone else in the list of people (I'd email you the next address). If you are the last person you'll have to mail it back to me here in England (again, I'll paypal you your expenses)

I appreciate that this is something that not everyone would want to do, but if you want to recieve something fun in the mail, and help me out as well, that'd be great!

I think I remember seeing something like this before, where a guy sent a camera through the mail and asked postal workers to take random pictures of themselves. But yeah! Pretty cool idea, I'm up for it.

Ok, thats awesome stuff. Seeing as the camera only has 27 exposures, I've got enough people.
Will send out details shortly! Cheers.

With everyone's permission, I'll upload the results of this little project when its complete.

Damn, missed my chance. I have a great view through my window, too. That's what I get for leaving the blogs for a couple of hours.
