Worn out pants collection to show mobile progression

Filed under: , , ,

Just as wallets leave impressions in rear pockets, cellphones can do the same for pockets in the front. One Aram Bartholl has decided to start a collection of battle-tested jeans that “show traces of mobile tech development in society.” We’ve no idea if he’s planning to tackle the whole thing on his own, but we’d suggest buying up old pants from around the globe in order to amass a sizable collection before death sooner. The image you see above shows what happens if you walk around for three solid years pocketing an original Nokia 6600. Anyone got any impressions (SFW, please) they’d like to share in comments below?
