average photographs study
1 year ago
every day, flickr deems 500 photographs from its database "interesting."
( flickr.com/explore/interesting/ )
each frame of this video represents the average of one day's 500 interesting photographs.
in series, the video frames document each day's average interestingness between July 1, 2004 and July 1, 2007.
this video is a study for a larger-scale, interactive representation of similar data.

I really like averaging works like this when they contribute new perspectives on familiar objects/situations. Here it looks like: interesting photos tend to have a sky-blue "header", a darker "footer", and a centered skin-toned subject. I guess we like looking at pictures that remind us of people outside?
