This Is Your Life

One of the more interesting concepts for a TED talk - and a project - is the one that Cesar Kuriyama presented this year. His idea? Film one second of his life each day for a year. What results is a powerful video of hard cuts that show you what any of our lives look like. Typically, we take out our video cameras (or phones nowadays) and only record the monumental: weddings, graduations, exotic vacations.

But Kuriyama's project shows what life really looks like. It looks like lunch and family and hospitals and walking.

Give the video a watch below and begin to celebrate the ordinariness that is your life this weekend. And, hug someone.
