Not Belfast 1978

How dangerous is NYC in 1975?

Day of not looking at photos of New York City….so I can design a show set in New York City…

I am getting itchy. This process would usually only be the work of one morning. But, trying to articulate why the selected images are important and what I am taking away - boy, oh, boy does it make this part of the process drag on. In that ‘first look’ morning I would just look at all of the 13 thousand photos mixed together, as they appear in the search engine. The New York City images would be sitting next to the Tehran ones. The contrast and compare would happen naturally and faster.

However, like most acts of sorting through the wildly complex mindmap in one’s head, and then organizing it well enough to write about it clearly - this process has so many benefits! I am going to do it every time from now on!
