I stumbled upon (literally) this site over lunch today: http://www.blockposters.com/. It got me thinking about a possible photo project.

The aforementioned site provides a way of recreating large format posters using small printable sections. But what about this…
I was thinking about using a similar grid mask to that used in Screencaster’s Episode 064. Essentially a grid of say, 9 rounded rectangles. I would take a nice image that I like and and do the grid masking and then print each individual section onto its own piece of photo paper. I would then somehow mount each piece to a backing and mount them on the wall (maintaining the spacing between rectangles of course).

I think this would be a neat effect. However I’m a bit unsure about what do about the photo mounting. Is it possible (and not overly expensive) to get these things done onto something like foamcore by a printing shop? I think it would work best with each individual piece mounted framelessly to the wall.

But of course there might be other, equally good (and maybe easier) ways to do it. I’d be interested in anybody’s suggestions.
