an interesting project.............From the page: "We distributed hundreds of disposable cameras to two groups on different sides of the U.S.-Mexico border: undocumented migrants crossing the desert into the United States and American Minutemen trying to stop them."

hella creative attempt to remedy the potential firestorm currently smoldering along the mexican/u.s. border... pass out hundreds of disposable cameras to players on both sides of the fenceline, provide pre-paid return mailers, then post the resulting photo documents on the internet so the world can bear witness.

What an awesome concept this is. The differences between the Mexican and US photo subjects is scary. I hope more photos are added. (Also, check out the "short films section." As of 4th November, there was only one on the site, with the promise of about three more. The ostrich's music video is fun, a light break from the intense photos from the galleries.

From the page: "We are distributing hundreds of disposable cameras to two groups on different sides of the U.S.-Mexico border: undocumented migrants crossing the Arizona desert and Minuteman volunteers trying to stop them. Both sets of photos will be developed, juried, and shown at galleries all over the United States and Mexico."
