One Second Every Day @TED #ted #shorts

I'm recording one second of every day  of my life for the rest of my life,  

chronologically compiling these one-second

tiny slices of my life into one single continuous video

until, you know,

I can't record them anymore.

The purpose of this project is, one:

I hate not remembering things that I've done in the past.

There's all these things that I've done with my life

that I have no recollection of unless someone brings it up,

and sometimes I think,

"Oh yeah, that's something that I did."

It's also kind of a personal protest, against the culture we have now

where people just are at concerts with their cell phones out

recording the whole concert.

I admittedly used to be that guy a little bit, back in the day,

and I've decided that the best way

for me to still capture and keep

a visual memory of my life

and not be that person,

is to just record that one second

that will allow me to trigger that memory of,

"Yeah, that concert was amazing. I really loved that concert."
