Touching People

What do you think about this project and photo essay?
I think this essay is very different from what an average/normal photographer would do. It has a good feel to the photos, seeing strangers come together.

2. What would you do if someone approached you with a camera and asked you to participate in a photo shoot and then asked you to touch a stranger?
I would first be a little confused of what is happening and the first few seconds would probably be awkward. But I would participate and take the picture because it's a cool idea for photos.

3. Think of an unusual photo shoot similar to this one that you think would be fun to go and shoot.
Possibly, a similar shoot with strangers you could do is take people out of their comfort zone where they live. For example, it a person lives in a rich suburb area, they can take them to a place where it isn't ass wealthy and is known for people committing crimes and being in gangs. Just to see how they would react in an environment they are not used to.

4. Finally, tell me what you thought of the photography, did the photographer think about the rules of photography that you know about? What types of photos did he take?
I think the photography was pretty creative and different, which makes it better. It's a cool idea to go around and have 2 complete strangers that have never met before come together to take a picture.
