Over at [Rhizome](http://rhizome.org/editorial/2011/jun/20/photographing-screens/?ref=killscreen.com), Joanne McNeil points to an interesting post on nature of Google Street View with some fun insights on screens. (We’re really into screens for obvious reasons.):

> *Lee Friedlander took a series of photographs in the 1960’s that included screens (that were in a 1995 exhibit and subsequent book called “The Little Screens”). In the photos from this era the television is usually a small, glowing box in the corner of a room. Friedlander’s screens almost always have a person, but he moves in closer to capture faces. Friedlander is attracted to those moments where the facade peels back from the relatively new, perfectly sensible electronic communications medium and reveals a 1/125th of a second of raw, unpolished humanity. The GSV photographers, with the exception of Mason, seem to be looking for this same kind of moment.*
