have you ever recorded someone without their knowledge or wanted to?
i think i want to try this with my phone. not at home really but at school. if i'm going to go to school than i need a purpose i think. a larger purpose. a purpose connected to going to school. the purpose has to be related to the school or it's not a good one. having something to occupy yourself with, even if its purposeful, is not a good purpose because it's hiding. its tuning out the environment rather than engaging with. i want to engage with it. but inconspicuously. that's why i was thinking get in earshot of interesting conversations and record them. i already got in earshot of some of those without really trying. but what's my objective? to document? but what am i documenting? people. i'm documenting people. but why? i think i'm getting close to a purpose that'll work but im not quite there yet. any ideas?
