Mass Observation
Wednesday, May 11th, 2011 09:44 pmMass Observation lives!
I think this is a Cool Thing and shall be doing it.
Thanks to
fjm for the heads-up!
In 1937, Mass Observation called for people from all parts of the UK to record everything they did from when they woke up in the morning to when they went to sleep at night on 12th May. This was the day of George VI’s Coronation. ...
The Mass Observation Archive repeated this call in 2010 by asking for electronic diaries written on 12th May. May 12th 2011 is likely to be quite an ordinary day but we would still like to have your diary.
Write as much as you can about what you do, who you meet, what you talk about, what you eat and drink, what you buy or sell, what you are working on, the places you visit, the people you meet, the things you read, see and hear around you and of course what you yourself think.
Anyone from any part of the UK whatever your age or background is welcome to send us a diary but it must be in electronic form!
I think this is a Cool Thing and shall be doing it.
Thanks to
