The life project
Since 2014, I started tracking myself using a diary and doing various experiments using quantitative data. This is also known as “Quantified Self”. In my diart I collect about 40 variables a day including my sleep, work, and subjective daily experiences such as happiness, stress, meaning etc (this is known as lifelogging). Read the article, ” What do I track?” to get more info. I have also done many experiments which you can read below, or scrolling through the bar.
Over the years. I started also writing and drawing more in little books. You can read more about this in Theory.
