Along the lines of the guy photographing every door handle he comes across, Aimee Sealfon is chronicling 365 people(One a Day), each different, she encounters through the year, with a short note about each.

Somewhat related, there's a site a guy put up in which he was displaying a picture of himself for every year of his life. Sound familiar to anyone?

Is it just me, or is the bitmap text for each of the notes really, really badly rendered? It's hard to read, which is a shame. I have a fondness for trivial minutiae like this, but I can't sit here squinting six inches from the screen trying to decipher it.

I'm not sure if you were talking about this guy Su, but he takes a photo of himself every day.

ah, i love projects like this, even if they don't really do anything per se. anyone know what typeface that is in the intro animation? i like the whole georgia-esque raising of certain numbers...

my professor did an exhibit that was somewhat like this, during his years at OSU. he recorded, took a picture of, and documented the moments leading to ever cigarette he had for a year. fun stuff.

majick, no it's not just you. the text is almost illegible.
