Have you visited Inside Out Project lately?

Since the Inside Out Project launched last year at TED, more than 70,000 individual photos have been shot and pasted in almost 9,000 locations around the world, sharing a vision of individual identity for the world to see. To house this astonishing collection of portraits online from around the world, Inside Out recently revamped their website — insideoutproject.net — so you can explore and browse the gallery and sign up to take part in a portrait pasting of your own.

Plus! While staying in Southern California last spring to work on the TED Prize, JR also started up a beautiful mural project called “Wrinkles of the City” — celebrating the lives of older people in youth-obsessed LA. Now you can watch a short film about the project, with powerful stories and images:

    It was a touching video. It was marred, for me, by seeing that small horror perpetuated of writing “loose” where the speech said “lose”. It is happening all over now. I guess it started as mere error and is fast becoming a change in spelling. It disturbs me to see error reified into change. And “saran wrap” is not “surround rap”. But the concept of putting those faces on buildings is a great one for upgrading the look of a gritty city.
