Perspectives

For my project I am interviewing education people in all 10 municipal districts in Barcelona. I visited two neighborhoods today, and brought along the camera as a way of noticing more as I walked around the new places before and after my meetings. And notice I did. Whenever I’m taking pictures I start seeing more and more possibilities, seeing details and framing images that I would have walked past if the camera weren’t in my hand, especially in the city. I love the idea of a picture a day with the 365 project. Perhaps using the camera lens to notice this city in new ways will help me find my way into my research project, into seeing peoples’ understandings of immigration, integration, and how schools are changing.
