I decided to use the number 175 as a very basic starting point in my project. I wanted to look at the 175th person in the local phonebook.
I then wondered how much information I could collect about this one person and how much investigation it would take to build up a profile. I performed a quick google search and was amazed that I then knew how many children they had, the name of the woman's husband, where she worked and (quite disturbingly) the amount of money she earned.
I felt as though this could be quite exciting and I was beginning to enjoy looking into the life of the woman.
This lead me to look at artists that use "stalking" so to speak as an art form and I then began to look at fine artist and photographer Sophie Calle.
