A little shy as we are we´ve proposed stuff like this earlier (last paragraph) but this is not the place for the We-told-you-so-speech. This project of C | summit Cameraphones 2004 is great:
"A presentation about a proposed non-profit project is based on the goal of documenting the beauty and passion of all human life for one 24 hour period on Valentines Day of the year 2005 by 100,000 cameraphones, photographers and videographers throughout the world. The project will coordinate access to celebrities for student film makers and photographers. We believe that this would become the most valuable reference for anthropologists in five hundred years, while driving adoption and U.S. uptake. We intend for this project to be bigger than Hands Across America, more artistically impactful than Burning Man, and more fun than the Macarena. A portion of the proceeds will be donated to charities benefitting the vision impaired. This will lead to an open group brainstorming about ways to tip the market for mobile imaging."
