While on StumbleUpon today, I came across an article (http://www.stumbleupon.com/su/6yg4by/:1QlZFIMDD:XjDWOdqb/www.ignant.de/2012/09/03/anonymous-confessions/) about an art project done by Candy Chang entitled "Confessions". It is basically a room full of confessions that people have made. The confessions are written down in a secret booth so as to keep them anonymous.
This sounds like a really cool idea to me. I truly believe that everyone has at least one big secret that they want to let out, but that they don't want anyone to know. This provides people with the opportunity to do this. It reminds me of Twitter or some other form of social media because it is a lot about interactions between the people. When people come to see the room and submit their own confession, they are allowed to go around and read the confessions of others. It is a sort of anonymous fame. I find it to be a beautiful idea and would like to someday go see it and possibly submit my own.
