After the first two events, when we draw journalists attention to the bicyclist knocked on the ground and put the schoolchildren to the position of reporters, we used the photos, which were taken there. Babel Lietuva team examined the students attitude to the pictures, as the merest form of media.

 

Lithuania is under the reign of digital media and surely the information is already settled in our hard-drives. In the meantime, we say that students in Vilnius still worship the simple forms of printed media. Are they interested in photos, lying on the ground? Do you think they are trying to find the owners of these photos?

 

In fact, most of the people do not give attention to the pictures strewed near to the library of Vilnius university and blown by the wind. However, a couple of pictures pressed with stones is winning as much recognition of the public, as the contemporary art exhibition could win.

 

In the beginning we were sure, that our purpose was exceeded, because all the pictures were collected. But later, we found all of them at the library front desk. It seems like the inclination for the common welfare is not a hard-task for students. Nevertheless, a few people dared to collect the pictures and only the group of students who noticed the camera asked for permission to keep them.

 

 

By the way, the pictures draw more attention, when there was already leaning someone interested. While one collected pictures, others were leaning and trying to take a glance. When nobody was around, most of the students stepped them over taking a dip of image gingerly. The picture  is evidently as interesting, as it is still treated with respect among them.
