Sometime the photographs we choose not to take are the most powerful images- in this assignment choose not to photograph a subject but write out the image in text (or maybe describe in audio), and share why this is a more appropriate representation.
This is based on the Unphotographable site : “….a catalog of exceptional mistakes. Photos never taken that weren’t meant to be forgotten. Opportunities missed. Simple failures. Occasions when I wished I’d taken the picture, or not forgotten the camera, or had been brave enough to click the shutter.” and see also examples done by the phonar participants

Take a scene from any movie (that includes more than one character) and rewrite it from the perspective of a different character. Write about the emotions and thoughts the character is having without acknowledging what you know from the original scene. For example: You could write on the scene from Titanic using Jack’s perspective while they were in the water and Rose was on the door. Be creative the possibilities for this are endless.
Create an image by taking a photo of an daily object. Manipulate it using any photo editing software such as GIMP or Photoshop to make an image that represents a computer virus according to you. (Nothing complicated- just an image of how you think a computer virus looks like)

Make it interesting and just play around with the idea…
