somehow ive managed to beat the cues, arriving during an unusual lull of the day, went straight through and came out victorious with my new iphone and a big smile.
so during the past week ive been getting to know my little mobile friend and trying to work out its place in my already digitally driven life.
as i was pimping it up with the obvious facebook, myspace, myface! apps, i found one that got me really excited…
wordpress on the iphone. blogging in real-time?
now there is an idea… an idea which really appeals to me and i think can have some great implications.
if you’ve seen “before sunrise”, a film by richard linklater, you might remember a scene where a street poet writes a love poem for a passing couple. he writes his impromptu words right there and then, inspired by the moment. its a nice idea to share your thoughts in the moment, something striking that resonates with some kind of potency and now being able to transfer it into the digital realm.
ive started a little project doing just that, a kind of social commentary / poetry / random thoughts, accompanied by images. everything is generated live using the iphone with no post editing.
