Today is the anniversary of the attacks on Pearl Harbor. The National Geographic website has a multimedia map and timeline of the attacks. The syncopated snare drum in the background music really adds to the surrealness.
Reconciling the immensity of the world with the intimacy of personal experience.
RULES:
1. I will make one handkerchief, everyday, for one year.
2. I will begin on the Autumn Equinox, September 22, 2008 and end on September 21, 2009.
3. I will embroider two motifs on each handkerchief:
a. A "monogram" mined from news sources, advertisements, internet, or other daily encounters
b. Text or image relevant to each particular day.
4. The deadline to complete this daily task is midnight.
5. Unfinished handkerchiefs will remain unfinished.
