Remember the 1000 Journals project? (It was a traveling journal/sketchbook project that started in 2007. It’s still going– according to the website, they now count over 75,000 participating journals, and over 17,000 images uploaded, though the website looks like there have been some spam posts lately, so I”m not sure how actively it’s being maintained.)
I don’t think I’d realized there was a documentary film about it. The video is fun, I love seeing all those journals in action!
See the promo video here: 1000 Journals – Andrea Kreuzhage |. You can buy the DVD of the film, or the book about the 1000 Journals project if you want to see more.
I was actually looking if they had a Twitter account when I found your article. I actually heard about the project when the filmmaker brought the documentary to Phoenix for a viewing, as part of an independent films festival. I bought the book and picked it up recently – got inspired all over again…
