Fluxus
I like the idea of seeing as a subjective, physical exercise with limitations. The eye can only see so much, in fact very little considering the entire electromagnetic spectrum. I like it because it accounts for the variability of perspective and reality. It does not attempt to restrict a grey world with black and white borders. Of course, the perfect irony here is that Flicker accomplishes its goal using black and white frames. While reading the article I couldn't help but be reminded of Bejamin's piece on mechanical reproduction.
