Woostercollective.com Launches Wooster Mobile
WOOSTERCOLLECTIVE.COM LAUNCHES WOOSTER MOBILE, THE WORLD’S FIRST CURRATED ONLINE ART GALLERY FOR YOUR MOBILE PHONE
New York, New York, March 14 2005
Today, WoosterCollective.com, a leading international showcase for urban/street art announced the launch of Wooster Mobile, a curated online art gallery of downloadable artwork designed for your mobile phone by a group of the world’s most prominent contemporary artists. Images from Wooster Mobile can now be downloaded onto mobile phones around the world at http://www.woostercollective.com/mobile.

All of the Wooster Collective revenue from this project is being donated to a wonderful non-profit organization called Keep A Child Alive. Keep A Child Alive provides life saving drugs to children and families in Africa who are dying each day of AIDS simply because they don't have access to the drugs that can save and prolong their lives.”
WiredSet’s Mark Ghuneim commented “We are excited to enable this vision, having seen many of the artist’s work first hand on city streets, the works take on renewed meaning in their new mobile context. Couple the art with the Wooster Collective charter and cause, it’s a good realization. Artists included in Series One from Wooster Mobile include: Faile, Calma, Tara McPherson, Labrona, Peter Goode. KGBE Rotgut, and many more.
Each image downloaded from Wooster Mobile costs $1.99 USD. In the United States, the mobile wallpapers are currently available on ATT, Cingular, and T-Mobile wireless services. The can also be accessed on most carriers in countries around the world. Additional carriers will be added to the service as they are activated.

10x10
10x10™ ('ten by ten') is an interactive exploration of the words and pictures that define the time. The result is an often moving, sometimes shocking, occasionally frivolous, but always fitting snapshot of our world. Every hour, 10x10 collects the 100 words and pictures that matter most on a global scale, and presents them as a single image, taken to encapsulate that moment in time. Over the course of days, months, and years, 10x10 leaves a trail of these hourly statements which, stitched together side by side, form a continuous patchwork tapestry of human life.
