Day Forty Four:
I've been checking Boston's and San Francisco's missed connections simultaneously for the past week, nothing yet. I'm coming back tonight and I'll have more opportunities to make connections in the airport. So much eye contact.
a social experiment.
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.
