Lessons Learnt on Planet Earth [Creative Experiment]
So this came to my door a while back. It's a book with 250 blank pages. The idea was to give myself the first page of every book (28 in total), writing in it a mantra I live my life by. I would then give the book to a friend and ask them to do the same. THEY will then pass it on to a friend (and so on). 'Lessons Learnt On Planet Earth' is a book of 250 authors. If all 28 books reach completion, then 1000's of authors would have participated.
As far as I know, the book has gone to Barcelona, Amsterdam, San Fransisco, South Africa, Cuba, and Texas. It’s been doing the rounds in London too. Rumour has it, Simon Cowell has one (RUMOUR has it). I gave it to a friend that gave it to the vice president of Sony Records. That was cool.
This was an experiment to see how my networks worked, and who was in them. I’ve been pleasantly surprised by the results. I never knew I was two people away from One Direction!? [Not that I’m a fan…]
‘Lessons Learnt on Planet Earth’ has only been going on for two months or so. I’m sure that I will be seeing new faces holding the book years from now.
Keep your eyes peeled for possible updates..
