itunes.apple.com/us/app/one-memento/id536240613?ls=1&mt=8 that's the link to the app... I like the concept of the app that take one photo only to keep for ever.

I wonder how many pictures of arses and ballsacks will be uploaded though? Is there any sort of moderation?
Also I can take one photo now and keep it forever if I like. Only I usually take lots and also keep them forever. I'm not quite seeing it here. Maybe someone can enlighten me?

I think you need to see this more as an art project, I do anyway, when you think about it 250,000 for the all world is not that much. Sharing that special moment is pretty inspiring.

...because it goes against the culture of snapping tons of stuff and forgetting all about it. Trying to select the one shot you want to keep forever is actually harder than one might think. Give it a go, the submissions already posted are actually inspiring and above the usual Instagram level.

digital photography (especially app based novelty photography such as this) is essentially ephemeral.
I have been taking photos for years, and any that I want to "keep forever" get printed - because in 100 years time, a good print will still be viewable, whereas this project will have been dead and buried with the images nolonger accessible for almost as long.
"You've got one shot" is a great game to play though, I'd just rather play it with a proper camers than an iPhone.

( , Tue 28 Aug 2012, 12:41, Reply)

and I have no idea one way or the other on that - it tells us nothing at all about what she does in any other context. It's hardly as if BBC jobs are handed out on spec - and so it's reasonable to believe that she does do something.
As for your hard-earned cash - let's break it down a bit.
It's a bit hard to find any record of her salary; but based on the figures I've found for other presenters after a bit of googling, it's probably in the region of £100k. But - to give you as much room as possible - let's double that to be on the safe side.
The BBC's income from licence fees is £3.6bn. This means that her salary represents a massive 1/200th of a percent of that income - or, to put it another way, one twenty-thousandth.
The TV licence currently costs £145.50. So your contribution to her pay comes in at £145.50/20000. Which is less than three-quarters of a penny per year.
So if you're worried about your money being wasted, you could at least console yourself with the thought that - at worst - this terrible drain on your resources comes in at the sort of money that you could have earned while doing your job instead of reading this post to begin with.
( , Tue 28 Aug 2012, 13:33, Reply)

Assuming that you're an adult earning the minimum wage, you're on £6.08/hour - which is as much as to say that it takes you (0.0075/6.08)x3600 seconds - so 4.44 seconds - to earn three-quarters of a penny. It takes less time if you're on more than the NMW.
I reckon it takes about 20 seconds to read that post - which means that you'd've been able to earn three quarters of a penny about 4 times. If anyone should be concerned about a waste of earnings, it's your employer.

...there's a moment at around 30:40 where she realises rip groove is too low and wangs the gain up (you only catch video of her actually finishing the adjustment but you can clearly hear it). That would be a funny thing to put in a pre-recorded set.

...most of your time is spent adjusting the incoming track, so to a layman it looks like you're pressing lots of buttons and it's not doing anything. It's kinda hard to tell from the video if she is actually playing live or not.

from the stupid tub o lard introducing it to the "social media" corner of the DJ booth. The DJs were also pretty shit & playing absolute bobbins. It was a nice idea hampered by lack of fuckin taste & some idiot producers with a whiteboard. Other than that 10/10 good job.
