Ever since I have watched the Truman Show, I have been fascinated with the topic of the documentation of a normal human life. Not 'reality television', but pure, unadulterated, human life. No script. No incentive to entertain, just pure life. Real life. No matter how monotone it may be. This is unlike the Truman Show, however, as Truman's world is artificial. This is where the tree branches from the Truman Show to the Marino Show. GYj2m1yVpGU Yes, you may have realized by now, that I am willing to document my life, as it is, streaming on the internet. How would this work? http://www.decormyeyes.com/Shades/ProductImages/65/VO243713631.jpg I wear my glasses the majority of my life. The only time when I take them off is when I sleep and take a shower. You are probably thinking... "What about privacy???" The whole element of conservatism is completely missing in me. It is like a jigsaw piece that is missing in my mind. I feel no need to keep things private, but I restrain. I restrain my thoughts as best as I can when I need to. But yes, I see the HUGE problem of the privacy of others, who I may often to see during the day, thus, in return, they would be streamed on the internet. The stream would be P.O.V after all. I thought of this idea while in the shower, where all my 'crazy' ideas come to me, so I still have a lot to think about. As for technology, I would obviously need a hidden camera on my glasses that can stream live onto the internet. "Can't you just use BlogTV?" The problem with BlogTV is the whole cumbersome, unnaturalness of it. I would have to carry my laptop wherever I go, which is greatly unrealistic. I don't even know if such technology exists: a hidden camera that can stream live to the internet, no matter where on Earth it is. Also, I do not even know if this is illegal. Is it? Also, before anyone says this, this is not based on ego. At all. A human life is a human life. The name Truman could be replaced with any name and it would be interesting. A life experiment. It is fascinating. That is, as long as the 'Truman' is aware of what is going on. Hiding a human from reality for entertainment is just pure selfishness. So yeah. I hope you get the gist. PS, No. The only drugs I take are prescribed for anxiety and attention.

Uh... you wanna be Truman...? It won't quite be the same since you know your life is taped, and kinda real... but... um... ... I wonder who'd watch it...?

I don't care who would watch it. Entertainment is not the purpose. It is purely an experiment. A documentation of a human life. And yeah, my life isn't exactly 'normal', but hey, not many would be willing to do this. And there are already 24/7 live streams on people, like Chris Pirillo (http://chris.pirillo.com/live/), although it doesn't follow him around. It is fixed at his computer.

My life would be hell on the internet.. Half the stuff I say would get me arrested or killed within the first 30 minutes.

I don't do anything illegal... Well... nothing serious. I would obviously wait until I'm 18 to do this though. Imagine the lawsuits. :eek: Also, Mod My Life allows you to tell 'modstars' or normal people on the street to do things, and they do it. xD The next show starts in an hour, so check it out (http://www.modmylife.com/) if the idea interests you. From the website: mod my life is a new form of video entertainment. We don't just let you watch the video, we let you decide what happens. Our performers, called modstars, roam around freely while we capture the action with wireless, mobile technology. All the while, you can submit and vote on ideas for what comes next. The most popular ideas get sent to our modstars and performed live.

This has sort of been done before. I've seen it done a few times with someone wearing a camera phone that takes a picture every 30 seconds and puts them online and the days images were later edited into a video.

I think anyone would act differently if they knew they had cameras watching them.

Mod My Life (http://www.modmylife.com/index.php) is starting soon. :hero: See you guys there. I'm Marino6993. And yeah, Chaz, that is part of the experiment. I figure that at first, I would act a little bit different, but after a while I wouldn't care. xD EDIT: Rob, the modstar, is out today. ;/ Nevermind.

I'll watch it when you "hang out" with your girlfriend. (People might take this the wrong way, so I'll will add that I am just joking for clarification.)
