Portrait Plan
I will ask the subject to select three belongings. I will suggest that they fall into the category of clothing, books, or music, but the subject is not restricted to these categories. I will then ask him/her to briefly talk about their selected belongings and how they define him as a person. After they have discussed these objects, I will ask him how well they think the exercise succeeded in delivering an accurate portrait. This process will raise questions as to what extent our belongings can define us.

Gumspots and Urban Planning -- Daily Exercise 3
Idea:
Measure the concentration of gumspots on the sidewalk to find areas of idleness/loitering, and get a measure of foot traffic. Gumspots could be counted by a computer from digital photographs. This might be less labor intensive than other means, like recording activity with video. Why would urban planners want to know this information? Well, it could reveal areas of congestion and density of foot traffic. It could help determine rents for commercial storefronts. That is, if there is an area where there is a high concentration of gumspots, then it may indicate an increased likelihood that people will be looking into nearby store windows.
