Hey, just to let you know that I've finished my Twin Towns project now and have uploaded the photos that people have sent me - if you fancy having a look!
Hope you're well - enjoy the photographs!

Hey, I see that you live in Middlesbrough! I was wondering, do you think you could help me with a project I’m doing? I’ll explain...
I’m from Sunderland University doing a Photography degree. I’ve decided to do one of my projects on Twin Towns, where towns and cities throughout Europe are twinned with each other. At the mo I’ve got someone in Dunkirk, France, and Oberhausen, Germany, taking photos for me and I was hoping to get someone in Middlesbrough to do the same, because Middlesbrough is twinned with Dunkirk and Oberhausen. Would you be willing to give me a hand? I’ll give you more details if you wanna help me.
Send me an email to sally.hoban@sunderland.ac.uk or send me a message back on devART.
Thanks!!
Sally

Yeah sure, I'll try. I've got a few pictures already because of some work i did a couple of years back if they're any good.

Thanks for the reply, I'll try and explain a little more about my project...
I'm hoping to find people in each of the towns I'm including in my project to take photos of the town for me, from their perspective. I'm going to send a disposible camera (or two) to each person and hope that I get it back! I'm mainly looking at the idea of twinning, what it stands for, why we do it etc. But also at the idea that a lot of towns have more than one twin, sometimes 5 0r 6, which is quite strange when you think about it. I'm trying to develop this project but (as I'm sure you understand) you don't always know where a project will take you. I think at first I'm just going to see what people take for me and then decide on a more detailed theme when I get the images back. I may then send out another few cameras asking them to cover this theme.
I know that Middlesbrough is quite an industrial place, and found this interesting, as most (or all) of it's twins have strong industries too, perhpas this will be the twinning link I will use but to be honest, at the moment, I'm not sure.
Just to explain, my reason for using disposible cameras may not seem to clear. Although the quality isn't always great from cheap cameras like those ones I need to make sure that all the images I receive back are in the same format. Some people I have spoken to already want to use their own digital cameras but when I come to put all the images together I want them to look like a set. I won't be printing them out bigger than 6x4 inches so I'm not too worried about clarity.
If you could help me I would send you out a camera later this week, and need it back in about 10 days or so. What do you think?
I'd need you to take photos specifically for me, if that's okay.

Hiya, yeah, things are going well. ICA's are proving a challenge though, my fault for leaving them to the last minute ^_^'
And you?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I'm really really tired at the moment. Haven't slept really for about four days, i have started mine its just i haven't done alot of work on them but I'm sure it will all work out. Having today off and I'm just trying to chill, Docherty's orders.
Challenge? challenge is good, it makes you feel as you you are alive, but don't worry, you'll be fine. Think positive (i should try that).

Hi, thanks for the add..
You seem to know people I do, and go to Teesside... but i'm not sure who you are?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
I tend to be in hiding mostly, but if you end up taking drawing and composition 3 next year, then you might see me around.
To be truthfully honest, i don't know who you are but you go to Teesside which makes you one of us

Thats good....mine are a bit boring because they the same as last (cos i resitting).......CAN'T they think of something new???
whose dark things? is it painfull?
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Thats a shame, still you should have a good head start on them, perhaps its fortunate for those setting the ICA's they are not paid by the idea!
