[A vision of industrious sorts filing away feverishly at aluminum rectangles, making them ever so slightly larger!] There's a 'performance photographer' in Europe who takes photos at his opening with instant cameras. He sticks the developing print on the blank wall, destroys the camera with a hammer, then piles the remains up at the bottom of each picture, until the 'showing' fills all the walls of the gallery. Not only did he use the entire frame, he used the entire camera! Now that's art.
