iPod Touch Apps

I know its not quite the same but... I have purchased some new camera apps for my touch.  I purchased Hipstamatic and 8mm.  I used to own a Holga but I could never get it to work and I couldn't be bothered with the whole film thing as it was too much hassle and I just don't have the time and as I am not all that into photography, this will do for me :)

I neeeeed to remember to document things when I think of them... 

 Otherwise I lose potential ideas etc

So list of words to stop me forgetting...

Social Anxiety

For my editorial piece I am attempting to document a journey through social anxiety disorder through the eyes of someone who has suffered from it.  Social anxiety disorder is a misunderstood condition.

Definition: Social anxiety disorder (SAD, SAnD) is an anxiety disorder characterized by intense fear in social situations causing considerable distress and impaired ability to function in at least some parts of daily life. It is a rather extreme form of social phobia (SP), although the latter is sometimes treated synonymously.  

From initial research into social anxiety, I have came across some interesting ways people have tried to portray SAD.

Fight or Flight response- this is the physiological response to threat

Hiding to try and escape problems.  People can want to hide away from the world to protect themselves from threat

This reminds me of a photo my mam took of me and my friends in New York.  The photo below is a screen shot of 46th & Broadway's webcam...

Creepy :)

It seems you cannot escape...you are constantly being watched

I wandered lonely as a cloud...

Word Cloud

I am attempting to look at social anxiety for my editorial project.  So these are the initial words that come to my head on the subject :)
