What Is the 100-Day Project?
It’s a celebration of process that encourages everyone to participate
in 100 days of making. The great surrender is the process; showing up
day after day is the goal. For the
100-Day Project, it’s not about fetishizing finished products—it’s about the process.
How Can I Play? It’s simple. Follow these steps to participate:
- Sign up for #The100DayProject newsletter for important announcements prior to and throughout the project.
- Follow Elle Luna and The Great Discontent on Instagram for project announcements, updates, and highlights.
- Choose your action, which you will perform every day for
100 days starting on Monday, April 6th, and ending on Tuesday, July 14,
2015.
- Create an Instagram account if you don’t already have one (this is where you’ll share your photos).
- Select a unique hashtag for your project so all your
instances of 100 can be viewed in one place. Include the hashtag with
each of your posts (i.e. #100Daysof____ ).
- Announce your project on Instagram. Download an image and
post it on Instagram, along with your project’s unique hashtag, to
announce your project before April 6th.
- On April 6th, begin! Share each instance of 100 on Instagram and include your unique hashtag and the official projects hashtag, #The100DayProject, so everyone can follow along. (Note: If you find this after the 4/6 start date, you can still join in and catch up or finish later.)
What should I do for my project? We’ve put together a few questions to help you get started.
- What are you passionate about? Is there something you used to do that you gave up, something you’d like to explore, something that intrigues you?
- Pick an object or objects. What do you
already have in your possession that could be used to facilitate this
project? it could be as obvious as paint and paintbrushes, a camera,
fabric and a sewing machine, or a musical instrument. Or it could be
less obvious, like your great dance moves, paint chips, a wooden chair, or strangers.
- Consider your location. Will you be home, traveling, or a combination of both? Pick something that’s feasible for you to complete.
- Choose your action. What’s your verb? Here are a few to get you thinking:
stand,
speak, drive, study, drop, act, remove, repeat, examine, replace,
introduce, perform, jump, pass, test, roll, kick, run, cook, thank,
place, pick, save, throw, cover, shake, count, dance, break, walk, form,
deliver, show, raise, reach, catch, sing, sort, develop, measure,
discuss, draw, dress, write, meet, climb, take, look, climb, wish,
shout, wash, decide
