sixspace presents the groundbreaking art project SENT, the first major exhibition of camera phone art in the United States. The online portion of the project is now available for viewing at www.sentonline.com. An in-gallery exhibit takes place from July 10-17, 2004 at the Downtown Standard Hotel in Los Angeles.

EXHIBIT FORMAT: Images from invited artists, photographers, and celebrities will debut in print format at the gallery show, which launches for public viewing on July 10 in Los Angeles, and will later be added to the SENT website at sentonline.com, where images from the public are already on display. To make this unique exhibit a reality, SENT participants leveraged the newly available Motorola V600 camera phone to capture images over the past few months.

The SENT website is already displaying a continually expanding database of phonecam photos submitted by the public. During the gallery show at LA's Standard Hotel, a grid of multiple plasma screens will display these public images in a constantly refreshing display.

National Public Radio's "Day to Day" program issued a "Phonecam Challenge" to their listeners in partnership with the SENT phonecam art show. Listeners from around the world submitted images to SENT, and five winning entries will be recognized after review by a panel of judges including "Day to Day" host Alex Chadwick.

You can view random photos at Sentonline. Some are pretty nice!
