Psychogeography: Things People Fixed






This weekend, I took pictures of things after people fixed them. This was a good project for me because I can learn something about people without having to actually take pictures of them. I'm far more interested in people than objects, but I knew how much of a challenge it would be to take pictures of people, so this was a good way to compensate. A rule I set for myself was that I couldn't take any pictures of things that I fix, only things that other people fix. I don't like to interfere.
Luckily, I was at several events this weekend that people had to either clean up for or clean up after, so I had a few opportunities. One was at temple after the babysitting program in the basement. Another was my house when my mom was setting up for dinner (we had people over). Another was my brother's room which hasn't been touched since he last cleaned it before leaving for college. Another was somebody's house I was at for a little cross country party.
