Cesar Kuriyama: One second every day

Translator: Joseph Geni Reviewer: Morton Bast

Prevodilac: Filip Miletić Lektor: Mile Živković

So, I'm an artist.

Ja sam umetnik.

I live in New York, and I've been working in advertising

Živim u Njujorku i bavim se marketingom

for -- ever since I left school,

otkad sam napustio školu,

so about seven, eight years now,

nekih sedam, osam godina

and it was draining.

i bilo je iscrpljujuće.

I worked a lot of late nights. I worked a lot of weekends,

Često sam radio noću. Radio sam i vikendom

and I found myself never having time for all the projects

i nisam imao vremena za svoje projekte

that I wanted to work on on my own.

koje sam hteo da sprovedem.

And one day I was at work and I saw a talk

Jednog dana sam na poslu pogledao govor

by Stefan Sagmeister on TED,

Štefana Zagmajstera na TED-u

and it was called "The power of time off,"

nazvan "Moć slobodnog vremena",

and he spoke about how every seven years,

gde govori kako svakih sedam godina

he takes a year off from work so he could

uzima slobodnih godinu dana

do his own creative projects, and I was instantly inspired,

i bavi se svojim kreativnim projektima. Odmah me je inspirisao

and I just said, "I have to do that. I have to take a year off.

i rekao sam: "Moram da uzmem slobodnih godinu dana.

I need to take time to travel and spend time with my family

Moram da putujem i provodim vreme sa porodicom

and start my own creative ideas."

i pokrenem svoje kreativne ideje."

So the first of those projects ended up being

Prvi od tih projekata

something I called "One Second Every Day."

nazvao sam "Jedna sekunda svakog dana".

Basically I'm recording one second of every day of my life

Snimaću jednu sekundu svakog dana svog života

for the rest of my life,

do kraja života,

chronologically compiling these one-second

hronološki ću ređati malene isečke

tiny slices of my life into one single continuous video

svog života od jedne sekunde u spojeni video snimak

until, you know, I can't record them anymore.

sve dok, znate, više ne budem mogao da ih snimam.

The purpose of this project is, one:

Svrha ovog projekta je, pod jedan:

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

mrzim kada se ne sećam stvari koje sam ranije radio.

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

Toliko sam stvari uradio u svom životu,

that I have no recollection of

a ne sećam ih se

unless someone brings it up, and sometimes I think,

ako ih neko ne pomene

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

ili ne pomislim: "A da, to sam ono uradio".

And something that I realized early on in the project

Shvatio sam na početku projekta

was that if I wasn't doing anything interesting,

da ću, ako ne radim ništa zanimljivo,

I would probably forget to record the video.

verovatno zaboraviti da napravim snimak.

So the day -- the first time that I forgot, it really hurt me,

Prvi put kada sam to zaboravio jako sam se iznervirao

because it's something that I really wanted to --

jer sam stvarno hteo

from the moment that I turned 30, I wanted

da od mog 30. rođendana

to keep this project going until forever,

ovaj projekat traje zauvek,

and having missed that one second, I realized,

a kad sam propustio jednu sekundu,

it just kind of created this thing in my head

kao da mi je u glavi nastalo nešto

where I never forgot ever again.

i više nikad na to nisam zaboravio.

So if I live to see 80 years of age,

Ako doživim 80 godina,

I'm going to have a five-hour video

imaću video snimak od pet sati

that encapsulates 50 years of my life.

koji će obuhvatiti 50 godina mog života.

When I turn 40, I'll have a one-hour video

Kad napunim 40 godina, imaću snimak od jednog sata

that includes just my 30s.

koji će obuhvatiti samo moje tridesete.

This has really

Ovo me zaista

invigorated me day-to-day, when I wake up,

podstiče da svakog dana kad se probudim

to try and do something interesting with my day.

pokušam da uradim nešto zanimljivo.

Now, one of the things that I have issues with is that,

Jedan od problema s kojim sam se susreo

as the days and weeks and months go by,

jeste da, kako dani, nedelje i meseci prolaze,

time just seems to start blurring

vreme se nekako muti

and blending into each other

i pretapa

and, you know, I hated that,

i to me je baš nerviralo,

and visualization is the way to trigger memory.

a vizualizacijom se pokreće sećanje.

You know, this project for me is a way for me

Ovim projektom mogu

to bridge that gap and remember everything that I've done.

da premostim taj jaz i zapamtim sve što sam učinio.

Even just this one second allows me to remember

Pomoću jedne sekunde se prisetim

everything else I did that one day.

svega što sam tog dana radio.

It's difficult, sometimes, to pick that one second.

Ponekad je teško odabrati tu sekundu.

On a good day, I'll have maybe three or four seconds

Kada je dan dobar, imam tri ili četiri sekunde

that I really want to choose,

koje bih hteo da odaberem,

but I'll just have to narrow it down to one,

a moram da izaberem jednu.

but even narrowing it down to that one allows me

Ali čak i kad tu sekundu izdvojim,

to remember the other three anyway.

ionako ću se setiti ostale tri.

It's also kind of a protest, a personal protest,

Ovo je i nekakav lični protest

against the culture we have now where people

protiv kulture u kojoj ljudi na koncertima

just are at concerts with their cell phones out

drže mobilne telefone u rukama

recording the whole concert, and they're disturbing you.

i snimaju ceo koncert, a vama smetaju.

They're not even enjoying the show.

I ne uživaju u nastupu.

They're watching the concert through their cell phone.

Gledaju koncert kroz telefon.

I hate that. I admittedly used to be that guy a little bit,

To me užasno nervira. I ja sam ranije pomalo bio takav,

back in the day, and I've decided that the best way

ali sam odlučio da je bolje

for me to still capture and keep a visual memory of my life

da zamrznem i zadržim vizuelno sećanje na život

and not be that person, is to just record that one second

i ne budem takva osoba, da prosto snimim sekundu

that will allow me to trigger that memory of,

pomoću koje ću pokrenuti sećanje:

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

"Da, taj koncert je bio super. Divno sam se proveo."

And it just takes a quick, quick second.

A potrebna je samo jedna kratka sekunda.

I was on a three-month road trip this summer.

Letos sam tri meseca putovao kolima.

It was something that I've been dreaming about doing my whole life,

O tome sam maštao celog života,

just driving around the U.S. and Canada

hteo sam samo da se vozim po SAD-u i Kanadi

and just figuring out where to go the next day,

i smišljam gde ću ići sledećeg dana

and it was kind of outstanding.

i bilo je fantastično.

I actually ran out, I spent too much money on my road trip

Na putovanju sam potrošio previše novca

for the savings that I had to take my year off,

iz ušteđevine koju sam odvojio za tih godinu dana,

so I had to, I went to Seattle and I spent some time

pa sam morao da odem u Sijetl i provedem neko vreme

with friends working on a really neat project.

s prijateljima radeći na zanimljivom projektu.

One of the reasons that I took my year off was to spend more time with my family,

Uzeo sam slobodnih godinu dana i da bih češće bio s porodicom,

and this really tragic thing happened where

a dogodilo se nešto strašno,

my sister-in-law,

mojoj snaji se

her intestine suddenly strangled one day,

iznenada uvrnulo crevo,

and we took her to the emergency room,

pa smo je odveli u hitnu pomoć.

and she was, she was in really bad shape.

Bilo joj je jako loše.

We almost lost her a couple of times,

Par puta smo je skoro izgubili,

and I was there with my brother every day.

a bio sam tamo s bratom svakog dana.

It helped me realize something else during this project,

Zahvaljujući tome sam tokom ovog projekta shvatio

is that recording that one second on a really bad day

i da je snimiti tu sekundu kad vam je dan loš

is extremely difficult.

veoma teško.

It's not -- we tend to take our cameras out when we're doing awesome things.

Foto-aparat uzimamo kad radimo nešto divno.

Or we're, "Oh, yeah, this party, let me take a picture."

Recimo: "Super žurka, hajde da se slikamo."

But we rarely do that when we're having a bad day,

Retko ćemo to uraditi kad nam je dan loš,

and something horrible is happening.

kad se dešava nešto užasno.

And I found that it's actually been very, very important

Shvatio sam da je zapravo jako važno

to record even just that one second of a really bad moment.

snimiti i tu jednu sekundu stvarno lošeg trenutka.

It really helps you appreciate the good times.

Tako ćete lakše ceniti lepe trenutke.

It's not always a good day, so when you have a bad one,

Nisu svi dani divni, a čak i ako vam je dan loš

I think it's important to remember it,

važno je da ga se sećate,

just as much as it is important to remember the [good] days.

kao što je važno da se sećate dobrih dana.

Now one of the things that I do is I don't use any filters,

Ne koristim filtere, ništa ne dodajem -

I don't use anything to -- I try to capture the moment

trudim se da zabeležim trenutak

as much as possible as the way that I saw it with my own eyes.

najsličnije onome kako sam ga video svojim očima.

I started a rule of first person perspective.

Pokrenuo sam pravilo perspektive prvog lica.

Early on, I think I had a couple of videos where

Na nekim od prvih snimaka

you would see me in it, but I realized that wasn't the way to go.

me možete videti, ali to nije najbolje rešenje.

The way to really remember what I saw

Pravi način da se stvarno prisetim

was to record it as I actually saw it.

jeste da snimam događaje onako kako ih vidim.

Now a couple of things that I have in my head about this project are,

Imam nekoliko ideja u vezi s ovim projektom, recimo,

wouldn't it be interesting if thousands of people were doing this?

zar ne bi bilo zanimljivo da hiljade ljudi rade ovo?

I turned 31 last week, which is there.

Napunio sam 31 godinu prošle nedelje, na tom snimku.

I think it would be interesting to see

Mislim da bi bilo zanimljivo da vidimo

what everyone did with a project like this.

kako bi drugi izveli ovakav projekat.

I think everyone would have a different interpretation of it.

Mislim da bi ga svako drugačije sproveo.

I think everyone would benefit from just having that one second to remember every day.

Svima bi dobro došlo da imamo sekundu po kojoj se prisećamo svakog dana.

Personally, I'm tired of forgetting,

Meni je dosta zaboravljanja,

and this is a really easy thing to do.

a ovo je jednostavno uraditi.

I mean, we all have HD-capable cameras in our pockets right now --

Svi u džepovima nosimo kvalitetne kamere -

most people in this room, I bet --

siguran sam, većina vas -

and it's something that's --

a jednostavno

I never want to forget another day that I've ever lived,

neću više da zaboravim nijedan dan

and this is my way of doing that,

i to ću ovako uraditi.

and it'd be really interesting also to see,

Bilo bi stvarno zanimljivo da možete

if you could just type in on a website,

da ukucate na nekom sajtu

"June 18, 2018,"

"18. jun 2018."

and you would just see a stream of people's lives

i da se pojavi niz ljudskih života

on that particular day from all over the world.

od baš tog dana, iz celog sveta.

And I don't know, I think this project has a lot of possibilities,

Mislim da ovaj projekat pruža mnogo mogućnosti

and I encourage you all to record just a small snippet of your life every day,

i savetujem vam da svakog dana snimite delić života

so you can never forget that that day, you lived.

da ne zaboravite da ste tog dana živeli.

Thank you.

Hvala.
