A Day in the Life

For their first book, students were asked to record a day in their life with photos. They were encouraged to use a camera they could carry anywhere and that would allow them to be spontaneous, such as a smartphone camera. Prof. Cardinali advised students to photograph objects and scenes that looked interesting to them throughout the day, but that it was not necessary to make a linear documentation of their activities. This “day” might in actuality span two or three days, but the photographs should feel representative of one day.
