This is a project where I pay workers on Amazon's Mechanical Turk to review my art and website and pay them $5 dollars for 500 words. This is the 20th review I've received:
I quite like the
art on your website. I love how you convey photography as art. I really like
the "Please NO Photos" photos. I think that the huge sign is creative
and really abstract in a sense. It looks like the sign is edited on with a
program such as Photoshop, but it isn't and that is what I really like about
this "album". I also like the "Please Do Not Climb". You
explain it beautifully and your photos are just amazing. You make good use of
the lighting. I really enjoy your art. This is probably the best art I have
seen in a long while. You have such a great quality camera. I enjoyed looking
at the "Paul Shortt Shocks Chicago" page. All of the pictures on that
page are amazing. I really admire the last two pictures. I love how it is focused
on some handbuzzers while fuzzy on others.
Your art is very fun and lively, as
I observed in the "Calvinball - Paul Shortt" page. Everyone looks
happy and that is a true art that you can only capture on camera. I really
enjoyed looking at the "Missed Connections" page. I felt myself fill
up with joy suddenly. I like these kind of things. It is sweet and sincere art.
I liked the "How to Be Narcissistic" section on your art page. It is
funny how you can capture art with art. I watched a bit of the video and it
seemed fun. I thought that all of them were good artists. I liked the creative
"Corner Piece". It was hilarious and it was pretty to look at. I
almost "ROFL'd" when I looked at the "ROFL CON" page. I
thought it was a creative page. I liked the concept of the rug and the photo is
crystal clear and beautiful. The photographs make you kind of want to buy it in
a sense. The people look so happy while laughing and rolling on the floor.
On
the "Pillory for Market Place" album, I liked the pictures you took.
The pillory was quite creative and it is always a great idea to take pictures
when you find something interesting. I think you captured the meaning for the
pillory and, to me, it's just to have fun with it. I enjoyed reading your free
poster. It seems really upbeat and impersonal, in a way. Nowadays, I think most
of us can relate to that. You chose a nice variety of words and I respect you
for that. I chuckled a bit when I saw the Certificates. I enjoyed looking at
"Modern Greetings". I may use some of those in the near future! I
enjoyed looking at your early works also. I liked the one where you took a sign
and placed it in a weird place and had people demonstrate it. I thought that
was funny and had a little chuckle. I liked "Nimby's". Some of the
signs just made me laugh. I think that is a great thing. Art should make people
feel something and your art was done exactly that. I liked all of the photos
that I have seen today. Thank you for letting me view your modern art.
