A bit like an avalanche coming to rest. The silence is deafening. But there’s more, after the tumultuous final weeks of picbod2012 we’re delighted to announce we’ll be pulling all of the content (including your stuff, our stuff, the contributors’ stuff) into one beautiful narrative for your download delectation. We’ll be in touch in the near future with this, in the meantime it only remains to say a massive thank you for making the class such a success for all the contributors and instructors and making the live experience so rich for our students. If you’d like an official #picbod badge to boast of your tribal belonging then email us your address and we’ll post one out. Until #phonar2012. jw and mj Many thanks to Grant Scott at HUNGRY EYE for setting and judging the “White Shirt” task and competition way back in week 4. We aggregated all of the entries from Flickr, the blogs, Facebook,Twitter, email and from the links in the comments.
