Significant Clothing: Black dress, green scarf, glasses, hair in braids, lots of rings
A man came up to my kiosk and asked for a recommendation about a good place to get sushi. He had short wavy hair, glasses, and a green(?) waterproof jacket.

craigslist | missed connections in boston
Statement
I’ve decided to take an account of the most common places for missed connections to happen in Boston, and then frequent those places. I will modify my appearance in regards to my location (“cute artist in coffee shop” vs. “young professional walking down Mass. Ave.”), and I will be purposefully aware of who I make eye contact with, who I talk to, and where I am. My goal in this social experiment is to see if I can be acknowledged at least once on “Missed Connections” over the course of the month, and to discover if modifying myself in the process may or may not change the outcome.
