The Square Foot: a daily photoblog of Portland, one literal square foot at a time.
Using a camera and a one-foot-by-one-foot frame to grab little bits of the city within the bounds of a fixed constraint.
I haven’t been doing photography consistently enough, so this one’s actually happening for real. Go check out thesquarefoot.tumblr.com.
Blog featuring before-and-after photos of meals as they were delivered to the diner and as they look after the diner moves things around to their satisfaction before digging in.
Is the bacon in the wrong place? Why do they even put the lettuce on the plate if you don’t want to eat it? This plate needs rotating 90 degrees clockwise! And so forth.
Potential corpus of material for aggregate studies in plating theory and demographic variation in diner complacency.

Instant DIY walking tours! Scavenger hunts! Socioanthropological fodder! Urban decay made fun! Etc.
Think small: something I could do, a block at a time, in my neighborhood.
Think big: crowd-sourced, world-wide database of graffiti.
