i know i've mentioned miranda july before, but, well, i'll mention her again.

i recently remembered one of her projects that touched me when i saw it for the first time, around last february. then i forgot about it until about a week ago and it's been entertaining me ever since.
in short, it's a website with various crazy and amusing assignments given by miranda july and harrell fletcher. anyone who reads the assignments is welcome to complete any of them and get their work displayed. the idea of all this is to lead people into new/fun/healing/thought-provoking experiences. i've been toying with the idea of doing an assignment or two. some of my favorites are:

Draw a constellation from someone's freckles

Write a press release about an everyday event.

Lipsync to shy neighbor's Garth Brooks cover. (ha!)

Make a portrait of your friend's desires.

Draw the news.

Write the phone call you wish you could have.

Take a flash photo under your bed.

Make a child's outfit in an adult size.

check it out
. it might inspire you.

точно този проект дълго време не ми излизаше от главата, когато прочетох за него горе долу по същото време.
телефонните разговори, които хората биха искали да имат, те хващат за гърлото и не те пускат лесно.

аз така и не пратих своя, но едва ли е случайно, че ме присети затова:)
