take one photograph a day

A filmmaker/musician from Brooklyn who took a polaroid a day until the day of his death. It’s somewhat eerie when you know the ending but the body of photos are so ordinary but extraordinary – why, out of all the moments in the day, did you photograph just this one? And why do we save up our photo-taking for weddings and graduations and birthdays, when all the ordinary days in between are so much more interesting?

Note: I may cheat by selecting a photo from something I’ve read or seen instead of taking the photo (our camera battery is really temperamental).
