Idea for Midterm Project

In conjunction with the Producing Participatory Media class, I am interested in exploring the capabilities of Jitter in using streaming media or media uploaded to a server from remote sources to create something interesting, preferably with short segments of cell phone video. Please see the blog post directly before this for PPM. Until I receive lots of content and further explore the Jitter streaming capabilties, I am not sure if for this class I will want to stick strictly with the outcome being a website or whether I will want to use the media in some kind of live performance aspect. I think I would like to experiment with both. I am planning to send an email to the ITP student list asking everyone with a video enabled cell phone to post something small to my blog via email, as I already have a perl script running on my server that checks a specific email address, saves these video files in a folder on my server and then posts them to my mobile vlog. This idea is in its infant stages so I'm not exactly sure what will come of it but I am very interested in the possibilities.
