How many photos are uploaded to Flickr every day? If you say, "a lot" you'd be right - but how can one best visualize the million plus photos that are uploaded every day?
Artist Erik Kessels created an exhibit, on display at What's Next, the Future of Photography at Foam in Amsterdam, by printing every single photographs uploaded to Flickr within a 24-hour period. The result? Something that looks like Uncle Scrooge's bank, except with photos instead of money!

Anybody care to figure out how much ink and paper that used?

I wonder how many photos are lost each day when they delete people's fricking accounts. Thanks a lot flickr- great service I paid your for. Next time I'll just throw my pictures in the garbage and save myself the $50.00!
