Facebook Meet Your Match

French artist Fabien David has composed a mural full of pictures by photographing 100 pedestrians on the streets of Lyon, France. He then posted their photos to a wall for all to see. What a beautiful project and one that is so simple. It is nothing like the social networking website, but I can’t help but wonder what Facebook would have been like had it been stripped down to the basics and the foundation that it started upon. Instead of having some photograph of yourself drunkenly dancing at a party, why not have our default be one photo taken just of our face in front of a neutral background? I almost feel like you can still learn just as much about a person in a less complicated way.
