The above idea originated from the times when pixels on our screens of pcs, laptops, pdas, mobile phones etc have died and left a random blank sqaure or set of sqaures usally right in the middle of your screen. Really out of a screen that has at least 800 x 600 pixels one or two shouldn't bother us, but they do. We wonder and dream what when working or playing games these dead pixels are hiding, both angering us and frustrating us in their shear blankness. This notion then got me thinking, what do we do in the real world to make sure memories don't get fragmented and lost, we take pictures either with our digital cameras or now and more interestingly mobile phones. This got me onto the idea of snapping these pixels when they are working and saving them in an album, a virtual album that would compliment a real one in you home. One thing I wanted to show in the above screen print of the idea was the comfortable anolog feel of the interface. You don't draw boxes and copy the screen but actually have to think about scaling and positioning as you do with a real camera. Then once pixels are snapped by the box a album will be created letting you fill in the blankness when pixels die or simply when you can't remember what you had done on the computer.
