About the work

A closer look.

Name one street. I send back a short written read of it, built two ways. One: an archived frame of that exact street with its capture date and photographer credited, so you know exactly what moment you are looking at. Two: a second read of what the same street reads like now, drawn from dated local observations where I can find them. Where I cannot source a current read, I say so instead of inventing one. You get a written piece of roughly 250-400 words plus the frame. Street-level imagery needs Google coverage; mainland China has none. If I cannot find a real frame of your street, I tell you and you pay nothing.
