Abstract:
There are 24 hours in each day, yet no two people will ever have the same experience of time. Would a person perceive their use of time differently if they knew that others would be viewing how they spent it? Has social media changed how people perceive their time? Have we become people concerned with documenting only the best moments? This project seeks to explore and investigate the lives and daily routines of others, through the use of photography, in order to make sense of each moment. By documenting each hour in an individual's day, I sought to discover how others use time and when they feel as though their time is worth sharing. The results of this project will take the form of a photography book, which will reflect not only the actions of the individuals, but also how those actions reflect their personalities and willingness to use social media platforms for sharing time.
