MANUAL: MONTH #003
"highlighting how generally already in our modern life we have to accomplish all sort of procedures before we can actually accomplish a task and underlining how the extra procedure i added to photograph my right hand is actually a way to dismiss a life as part of the megamachine controlling our civilization and to rather enforce my own ecology by also taking care of my immediate surrounding and my family"

MANUAL: MONTH #005

MANUAL: MONTH #009
"discussing how my project irritates not so much normal people as for example in the public sphere such as the changing room of a swimming pool where they could be threatened to be photographed naked although i am most careful not to do so and either way the resulting photos are too small to identify much in the background but making a point that the ones that are bothered are those who are afraid of having their capital compromise such as show owners"

MANUAL: MONTH #017
"in essence describing how yes the data i capture don't stand a chance admits all the more polished yet pretentious data an individual faces but it is a big chunk of authentic nature which could heal humans in this respect comparing myself with all the other anarchists explorers who came to discover how communities in remote areas of the world lived in perfect harmony finding myself the explorer of the only one nature left that is our inner human nature"
