My idea is of course to cover the whole world. All us megalomanics want to rule the world Terry! Once we can get a good database then local cells can form. In the beginning I see this as anarchic participatory democracy at work. Hopefully people will take it on themselves to bring people together. This will be fairly easy to do in large urban areas. Later on this may form the core of a more structured APIS *worldwide* organization.
We can start by having operatives secretly infiltrate government and corporate structures. In this way we can influence domestic and foreign policy beginning with the G7 nations. Our secret agenda will be to have governments ban copiers and replace them with a live human being gum printers, union of course. All police surveillance photos will be done with wet plate method in the tradition of Brady, Gardner, and O'Sullivan. All ID badges will be done in Autochrome and have to be held up to the light to be seen. The agenda is still not complete, but eventually it will be a brave new world of alt-photography. We will not be the underclass of the media world any longer. When our day comes, we will march proudly forth with our badger blenders, our bearhair bromoil brushes, our coating rods, our foam rollers held high for all to see.
