The Urge to Document

For months I have felt the urge to document what is going on in my life during COVID19. At this point I have been collecting material but have not found time to organize it or process it. I’m curious if others have had the same experience?

I’ve been recording audio of my family several times a week. Sometimes this takes the form of an audio journal/monologue. Other times I record conversations.

I have been taking daily walks around Oneonta; starting July 1 I’ve been posting one photo per walk on Facebook. Here is the gallery link: https://www.facebook.com/mfrphoto/media_set?set=a.10111168596849267&type=3

The NYTimes today had an excellent article about documenting this year:

Museums are working overtime to collect artifacts and ephemera from the pandemic and the racial justice movement — and they need your help. https://www.nytimes.com/2020/07/14/style/museums-coronavirus-protests-2020.html
