My greatest satisfaction!

AFE at work

My mother, on the right side, is using Google Images, to identify actors on historical movie pictures. This is necessary in her job to archive thousands of photos of the ASC – Archivio Storico del Cinema, my father’s historical archive of movie pictures.

She discovered the Web recently but now she is a great fan!

Marketing of mobile telephony in Tanzania

Back from my trip in Tanzania I have to show an interesting collection of images about marketing of mobile telephony around the country. As you can see they are pretty aggressive!

From cars to charts

From walls to houses

From billboards to shops

 

And they have clients of every age!  :-)

Participatory photography?

In Darlene E. Clover’s description participatory photography:

“places the medium of the camera into the hands of learners to democratize the image-making dynamic and give them the power to show and speak their own realities.”

Learn more on participatory photography with the PhotoVoice Manual.

p.s.: I was able to know participatory photography and learn about it thanks to eldis community messages I read on twitter.
