“What makes you happy?”
As part of his Masters in Branding course at New York’s School of Visual Arts, student Graham McMullin has embarked on a project where he poses this question to 100 individuals.
He then tries out these suggestions and documents them by posting photos of himself trying out the activities on his Tumblr blog.
Responses have streamed in from relatives, friends, strangers, designers and even branding experts.
According to Creative Review, McMullin said the most fulfilling endeavors are those that challenge him to venture out of his comfort zone, or to immerse himself in his surroundings.
He said, “I think the best bit of the whole experience is that it teaches you to be more present and less detached. I deliberately asked a broad range of people, and it's had me traveling all over the city, but one of my favorite suggestions was just 'sit on a park bench and watch people'...We're all so busy these days that you feel guilty sitting around for 40 minutes, but it was actually really uplifting”.
