My good friends know that I take pleasure in researching the anthropological foundations of perception and human decision-making. On that note, I compared the production within tribal societies to that of the American society. I found a remarkable difference in who produces things versus who enables others to produce. The ratio in our society of those who actually produce something (food, clothing, shelter) and those that don't (people on Wall Street among others) is ridiculous compared to less civilized groups of people.
In the same spirit, I am taking a personal inventory of things I produce visually versus things I consumer visually. Of those things consumed, I am only counting things I've taken real action on, giving up total exactitude for the belief that action (saving, photographing, commenting on, etc) means the visual was impactful. Divided by 30 day increments, the current 30 day segment is featured on the main page.
