Just a thought...

You remember how the polaroid or traditional b&w photography is now an appreciated medium of traditional photography?

Well I predict that horrible camera phone images will be the next on that list. On the grounds that history repeats itself as well as camera phones having that particular quality to their image taking which is instantly relevant to this era. Just like how you see an old VHS clip, you can see the undefined bluring of lines, the tracking going on and off, the horrible quality of sound. Just how Garth Merrenghi's darkplace DVD/TV series utilised this to its effect. As technology moves on, as mobile phone camera's get better, the old stuff will be appreciated more int he world of art & design, people will use it more creatively, recognizing the potential from what you COULDN'T do with it.

Anyhoo, rant over.
