Day Dreamer

If you had a day planner that wouldn't help you plan but might help you dream,  it would look like this.

DAY DREAMER is a virtual calendar and time capsule captured on May 1st 2026 in Indianapolis and compiled throughout the following few weeks.

It includes 366 photographs taken in my new place, Willard Park, Fountain Square, Irvington, Factory Arts District, Mass Ave, my old place, Garfield Park, CAMi, Woodruff Place and Pogue's Run.

It includes 366 improvised sweet nothings spoken that day and 366 two-second loops of electronic piano performance taken from the 12+ minute main menu theme.

As time passes, notice the fluctuations. Photographs go from blurry to focused and back again. Voice recordings change from dreary to excited, pointless to inspirational. It was an experiment to see what a full day really looks like for me as someone who often has mysterious energy and verbal communication levels. When will the moment meet your expectations or require a bit more patience to appreciate? How and when will things align or connect? 

You can choose to experience it in real time or time travel across the year at your leisure. With a bit of a leap of faith, you may even discover how to create your own day dreamer.

This virtual calendar was created as part of the 29th Secret Jam of Games
