These are little words of consolation now that I have established an almost perfectly spherical score.
I might vote for myself on the next assignment just to avoid any further embarrassment

I like community - think it would be easier to add some commentary to any type of community you are examining. Think there is huge scope in this, local community, specific groups, lack off, etc etc
yeah, i like the sound of community as well, count me f--king in for that one

Sovietpop, how do you think you might choose the next theme?
I have a few ideas
something to do with work, or too much of it. like, how we are expected to spend half of our waking hours (or more) at work, and how we're expected to work ever faster and harder (rather than better), drink coffee to keep us moving quick, don't dare be ill or take a day off sick, get that f--king lemsip max strength down you and get back to work.
how we're always on the move. eating on the move, talking on the move, working on the move.
lack of peace. we're expected to be available on mobile phone 24/7, get shitloads of junkmail and spam, phonecalls off salesmen. people get phoned up by their bosses on christmas day. i didn't ask for platinum fixed rate on purchases til 2006. i wanna be able to walk down the street without being mugged by a chugger.
or something to do with identity? people brand themselves with tattoo's, clothes, and even the things they eat and drink. what is identity? is it a lip ring? is it your hairstyle? your religion? is it a tattoo that means "i am a dick" in japanese, although the tattoist told you it meant "strength and wisdom"?
or lifestyle perhaps? lifestlye goes well with identity as a theme, perhaps 'lifestyle + identity' could be the theme. tattos and piercings. music scenes. the places people choose to eat and drink, the things people do or buy that fit into their 'lifestyle'. what the f--k is a 'lifestyle' anyway? can you buy one?

but didn't get my arse in gear last time, and can't promise this time, but will try... old & new, bridges, light & shadows get my vote.I can imagine community being pretty easy. Just find a ghetto like Smethwick and take pictures of the black/asian people.

hey firky, this is you when you get your 300mm lens to perv on women. of course, by the time you've saved up for said lens, you'll be older, fatter, and more easily confused by digital technology due to the copious amounts of ganja.
"hmm... how do I switch this thing on"
Ok I consulted with a jury of experts (me mates) and they said that they thought Community was the best one because it was pretty open, and it would be interesting to see how people interpreted it.
If you are very lazy you can take all the pictures at your mates gaff on New Years Eve - or you could take pictures of ants - or you could have an ironic take on it (the absense of community) or think about the different types of commuites there are; communites can be cultural, they might be artistic, they can things that people aspire too. You can think about people that make up communities, or you can think about the spaces that make up communities. They can be *places* that people live in or *people* that people live with. Even plants live in communities so you could take a picture of your garden. I reckon there is enough ideas there if people try and think a bit laterly
so next months theme is Community and I'll put up a new thead.
