Some say the Occupy groups are reminiscent of past political movements. These photos were taken with that in mind, using the Hipstamatic app that makes iPhone photos look like old Polaroids from the 60s and 70s.

Look through these images and meet a 64-year-old physicist, a UMass Boston student studying gerontology, a 47-year-old EMT, and two young adults who are out of work and out of school.
