Yes.. </p>
<p>the few photo's we saw (only 3 or 4).. each had an OLPC somewhere in the image, generally in a childs hand or peaking out of a backback or something..</p>
<p>The photo's we saw were all taken outside..in an urban setting, with childern & an OLPC in the image. But I have no idea what the rest look like.. you could probably call or email the people at Luminaire to get more info.</p>Scott commented on 'MAO Art Buy of the Month by Famed Photographer Catherine Opie'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451694c69e200e54fba0e5988342007-12-16T15:42:41Z2007-12-16T15:42:41ZScottSo does each of the photos have a OLPC laptop in it?

Kinda like leaving a phone message with a gallerina in Chelsea... I tried it twice, Am I missing something? Am I going to get a bill for $1000? SO I keep thinking... Am I going to end up being the Grinch to every computer savvy kid in developing countries.... Huh.... I really like the whole idea...</p>Mike @ MAO commented on 'MAO Art Buy of the Month by Famed Photographer Catherine Opie'tag:typepad.com,2003:6a00d83451694c69e200e54fb704b888342007-12-14T04:29:22Z2007-12-14T04:29:22ZMike @ MAOhttp://www.ModernArtObsession.comSorry..everyone...
