The second Mediamatic exhibition on the ground floor of the Post CS building is about flickr.com, the photo sharing website developed by Ludicorp. Until the 18th of June.

Besides simply being a free server for digital photos, flickr has been able to create social networks of amateurs and professionals linked through photographs. The connections could be photographic locations, tags, techniques or composition, but are always warm, fuzzy and friendly.

The shop window style of the previous Mediamatic exhibition is now being replaced by keyhole viewing; the windows will be blocked except for certain gaps into which a visitor can peer to see the Mediamatic flickr installation.
