[spectre] Submit an opportunity

*Call out for artists (photos needed for fictional newspaper stories) *

*Concept: *

‘Headlies’ is a text and visual project that uses real newspaper headlines
but the stories beneath them are fabricated and fictional. Newspapers often
take sides and we, the reader, judge on humanity from its text and
photograph. From the newspaper’s perspective, access to public information
is a good thing but a newspaper’s function surely is to tell the society
about itself and to be a pollinator of its information? Its role is to
inform the citizens but as information gradually travels down, the citizens
become  ill-advised, ill-prepared and mis-informed.



*How to apply:*



   - Artists and photographers are required to represent a fictional article
   through their visual interpretation (photograph)



   - Please send an email to Diana Ali at alidiana at gmail.com



   - You will then be given a newspaper article. Take one photograph which
   you think represents that particular story.



   - Send the photograph along with a caption underneath, your name and
   location back to the same email address.



   - The collation of stories and photographs will become a large global
   project of interpretation and mis-information.
