open your eyes

a few years ago, my brother and i had a conversation about a series of art projects he did as an exploration in how well people "see." he would secretly install a piece of "art out of context"... and then watch people pass it by. how well do you notice detail? do you see beauty in your world? do you notice art? appreciate patterns? absorb colors? slow down enough to feel and touch and see and smell and taste? how well do you pay attention to the world around you? for an extreme project of similar nature, check out little people, i love it.
