Support the independent voice of Phoenix and help keep the future of New Times free.
One new idea for every day in 2011. We're talking big, small, local, international, in action, and on the drawing board. Here's today's -- what's yours?
Dutch photographer Erik Kessels is no stranger to the massive amount of imagery that surfaces on the web -- his latest installation, at Amsterdam's Future of the Photography Museum in FOAM, features more than one million photographs that he printed and tossed into into the What's Next exhibition space.
Kessels writes that his aim was to visualize the 'drowning in pictures of the experiences of others" -- Flickr is currently home to more than six billion photos -- about the same amount of photos uploaded to Facebook every two months.
Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
