I found this rather amazing video on youtube. A young man named Noah has photographed himself with his digital camera for the last six years and then created a video from the resulting photographs.
It makes me think about the way the photograph is inherently about loss. Photographs are often an attempt to capture the moment but can really only capture the past. Once the shutter has been pressed that moment captured becomes part the past and now only exist as a latent image on film or a digital information on the camera's sensor.
If the photographer keeps this project going it will be interesting to see the future outcome. enjoy!
