Camera Toss
Found this cool Flickr pool called - Camera Toss. Basically, you throw a camera in the air while taking a picture. There's some interesting ideas behind this technique... "It is about trading risk for reward in the pursuit of art." Times Square NY by Variable Resistance above.

From Camera Toss Description:
"This is a "technique" group, and the technique here is regarded by some as insanity. For we are the reckless folks on flickr that enjoy the abstract, chance, generative, physical photography that results from throwing our cameras into the air (most often at night in front of varied light sources).
It is about trading risk for reward in the pursuit of art. It is not about being a photographer, it is about enabling the photography that happens naturally when you let go of the process, give up control, and add a hell of alot more variables. It is about physics, gravity, angular momentum, acceleration, direction, chaos, and timing... most of which you have tenuous control of at best!"
