Happy Meal Project - Artist Sally Davies Photographs McDonald's Happy Meal For 137 Days

Davies took a Happy Meal sized burger and fries, put it on her living room table, and as Bravo says, decided to "watch what happens." She photographs said meal every day, and 137 days into the project (with no end in site), the results are remarkable in the fact that they're really unremarkable. To our eyes, the burger and fries look exactly on the same on day 1 as on day 137. Hungry yet?

It means that the emphasis of our thought is shifting away from the more contemplative and solitary modes of thought that I believe give richness and distinctiveness to our thoughts and even our selves.

Fraai gesprek met Nicholas Carr over zijn boek The Shallows, de invloed van het web op ons intellectueel denkvermogen.
