You know how to make it look like you’re photo was in a museum, but what if it could really happen?

The Musée de l’Elysée, a museum for photography in Switzerland, is taking online submissions for an exhibition entitled “We Are All Photographers Now”. The basic premise is to examine “the rapid mutation of amateur photography in the digital age.”

From the site:

“A hundred images every week will be chosen at random by a computer and printed on HP paper, so as to ensure the highest standards of archival quality. These pictures will then be shown as such for a full week before being replaced by the selection from the following week, and be subsequently archived in the permanent collection of the Musée de l’Elysée.”

According to the participation page, they have received photos from 7,071 photographers in 123 countries! Not bad! Thanks to Photojojo reader Lauren for pointing us to this very cool project.
