Photobombing

Photobombing is an art project, trying to harness the creative power of networks. The process starts with a photograph, an original image, each one of these images is tagged with an ID number and catalogued in the gallery on this website.

Those photographs are then passed onto to somebody else, that somebody should take a new photograph that incorporates the original into it in some way or another. The new photograph is then uploaded into the gallery as well, and linked with the original image. Then the original is then passed onto somebody else, and so on.

Eventually several galleries will be built up showing the creative collective’s ideas for each individual Photobomb.

The term was first coined in the summer of 2007, producing these results, but since then has also been applied to the act of “ruining other peoples photographs” - see this link for just one example.
