In 1998, Jonathan Keller of Detroit began taking pictures of his own face. Two years later, Noah Kalina started “Noah K. Everyday”.
Noah Kalina is a Brooklyn-based photographer that has photographed his face everyday from January 11, 2000 and is still a work in progress. He says in the FAQ on his site that, “I will take a photo today, and tomorrow and until the day I die”. In an April 15th LA Times article I read that “Arno Klein, a neuroscientist at the New School, has been taking similar pictures of his daughter every day since she was born, and if things go according to plan, she may be the first to lay claim to a genuine whole-life portrait.”
I think it’s interesting to watch the things Noah likes to consistentally wear and the facial transformation that happens after being in NY for a while. Truly lifelogging gone mad turned to art. Will be interesting to watch as he ages.
