| Can you spot yourself
or someone you know?
In 1981 I was working on a community project in the West End
of Newcastle and I set up a photo booth where people could take
a self-portrait, however they liked.
My name is Chris Mearns. 30
years on I'd love to find out what everyone is doing now and what
has happened since the day they snapped their own picture.
Take a look through the gallery and if you spot yourself or someone
you recognise please do get in touch.
Note: Chris sadly died in October, but his family and those original
particpants he had traced were so inspired they are continuing
the project in his honour.
A new self portrait session was held in November 2011.
The results will be shown on the BBC's Inside Out programme
at 7.30pm Monday
November 28th on BBC1 (North East & Cumbria
region).
It can also be seen elsewhere in the UK on SKY channel 975 and
FREESAT 956.
After transmission you can view the programme for 7 days on the
BBC iPlayer
