After years of playing with the 1 Second Everyday app and watching people do true video compilations with 365 seconds from their year, I was finally able to do my own video to look back on the year.

I’ll admit that this is still not a true 1 Second Everyday, as some of these seconds come from the same days, but my COVID spiraling that kept me at home also kept me very… stagnant for much of this year, and I would find myself with days having passed and not finding myself having done anything noteworthy. It was a creative challenge for me to try to find brief moments of beauty and interest in the more mundane parts of my life, but I think the result is a more calm meditation on the romanticization of the every day.

Let’s see if we can do it again in 2023!
