Using self-portrait photos, a Milwaukee artist has posted a time-lapse summation of his last decade -- and a day -- to the video site YouTube.
The more than 4,600 images are pictures Marc Tasman took of himself during 3,653 days and then compressed into a 5-minute, 27-second video, the Milwaukee Journal Sentinel reported Saturday.
"It's all there," said Tasman, who lectures on media, technology and culture at the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee.
Tasman said he knows of no other artist who has produced a time-lapse portrait of 10 years of daily documentation. The project started in 1999 with a Polaroid camera and his first digital camera -- a slow, noisy, clunky beast that required floppy disks, he said.
"We are all trying to find a purpose and make something meaningful out of our lives," he said.
