HeLLo everybody !

It’s time...to present myself...

But first of all, i want to apologize for my poor English…a real disaster i know :-) I don’t speak English fluently (i speak French), and i hope you’ll understand everything in my concept description.

My name is Renaud (Reno for my friends) and i write to you from Brussels, in Belgium (Europe). I’m 30 years old, and i work for my municipal authorities (in social assistance).

I have created "Screen Reflect" for this reason :

I love creating original, totally bizarre, powerfull and strange methods to promote websites on the web...something that can cause a "buzz phenomenon" on internet. It’s why i have imagined "Screen Reflect", a new kind of viral artblog project. In general, people like what is uncommon and very strange...so, this blog can be a good example of what is made on internet (in this category)...

My concept is based on humor, creativity, and made without pretension. The goal is to experiment a new collaborative artblog concept and to focus attention on you and...me ! If it works : i'm what we call a little genius :-) j-o-k-e (-: ... If it doesn't work : it's not the end of the world...

The concept in few words :

"Screen Reflect" is a collaborative artblog/photoblog project where people from all horizons transform their TV or computer screens into mirrors OR give the illusion that there are big holes in these screens.

There is only one rule : you may not use photoshop to create your illusion. So be immaginative...with your digital camera !

How to create your illusions ?

For the mirror :

Take a photo of what you want to see reflected by your TV or computer screen.
Send your photo* to your computer or TV ===> use then the fullscreen mode to visualize it.
Take a second photo in which must appear : the fullscreen photo AND the reflected item.

* Don't forget to reverse this photo (you can do it easily with Microsoft Paint for example) ! This is very important for the final result.

For the hole :

Introduce the objective of your camera inside this useful thing :

...and take a photo of what you see behind your TV or computer screen.

Send this photo to your TV or computer and visualize it with the fullscreen mode.
Take a second photo in which must appear the fullscreen photo.

Once finished, email your photo at screenreflect@gmail.com (+ a link of your choice ).

You can participate to this project as often as you want.

The most funny, original and humoristic creations (will link back to the contributor's websites) will be posted on "Screen Reflect" every week.
