peer to peer art - The aesthetics of ephemerality

http://www.single-shot.co.uk/#canvas

Above is a link to a film by Clio Barnard that I very much enjoyed.
It was shot on a mobile phone, and is being distributed through download and through blue tooth technology.
Was also screened at the Tate Britain which is where I saw it, but I think it would actually be better when watched on a mobile phone as it is a kind of intimate, personal meditation and watching on a phone would I think emphasize the sense of personal space and also be truer to the medium that captured the images. Unfortionatly my mobile is about 10years out of date so
I can not watch it this way, but I just thought it was interesting to reference here as it utilizes another progressive distribution method, and is another good example of someone who is exploiting recent technological developments in an artistic way.
