KISSING STRANGE
D.*
It blows my mind that there are people out there who read this blog and know this project and don't necessarily know me or J directly. I find it exciting that technology allows for such unspoken conversations between people, sometimes turning strangers into friends or providing the light to show things the other way round. It can be humbling to read the writing of someone you think you know only to discover that their thoughts, passions and ideals are not what you'd presumed or imagined; that the person you think you know is someone you've perhaps overlooked or taken for granted so much so that the person you think you know is effectively a stranger. This again is part of the impetus behind this project: to bring people together and illuminate the gaps between them, even and particularly when they're not aware that they're there, for if we can't see the gaps, how can we bridge them?
