Where does the time go? Life may seems so busy, but there never seems to be enough time in the day. What am I doing when I lose track of time? It may disappear when I’m staring at my toes, or imaging who lives behind the window in the apartment across the street. To try to understand this mystery, I am recording the first snapshots of those moments.
