Question by : Mr. No-one - this is actually not a question.
Jamie Livingston's 365 Project
Do you familiar with project 365? Short words, it is a project, done by a person, to do the same thing everyday for the whole year. You can take a pic, you can commit to post a blog-post everyday, or you could doodle something on the paper, and post it as the prove and to tracking your day. But actually, this is not a new thing.
Recently, I stuck at this one person's web, Jamie Livingston. Most of you maybe didn't ever heard his name before. Who is he?
Jamie Livingston
Jamie Livingston, New York photographer, film maker, and circus performer, born October 25, 1956. He has taken a photo every single day from March 31, 1979 through October 25, 1997. In 1979, Livingston received a Polaroid camera and after a few weeks noticed that he was taking about one photo a day, which subsequently evolved into the project, but the plan was to take one picture and keep it no matter how it turned out.
Livingston's Polaroid a Day charted his experiences with cancer, and his subsequent engagement and marriage. His photographs in and out of hospital continued up until the day of his death. Yes, he has taken a daily photo for nearly 18 years, using his polaroid camera.
The Photos
At first, no one know who is he, or who is the owner of these polaroid photos. There are a lot of random shots about everyday living with friends, objects at home, and in the street or park. There’s no author listed, no contact info, and no other indication as to where these came from. But apparently, this photographs tells a story. Before Livingston died, his friends Hugh Crawford and Betsy Reid promised they would not let the project die with him. To commemorate the 10th anniversary of their friend’s death, they digitally photographed the Polaroids and reproduced them for an exhibition titled PHOTO OF THE DAY: 1979-1997, 6697 Polaroids, dated in sequence
Here's some of the interesting photos, and the record of his last time :
