Dates: 1 January 2006 - 31 December 2008

Duration: 3 years

Data Collected: Every time I drink a cup of tea or a different type of hot drink I make a brief note of what I am thinking about.

Objectives: I began this project to be a diary of sorts, a way of creating a regular moment of reflection to sum up and clarify what had what had been preoccupying me. I also wanted to document my tea drinking habits, to become aware of how much I drank and when I chose to do this. I always hoped that my tea drinking would not be affected by the fact that it was being monitored and that this would be a ‘real’ representation of my behaviour.

Outcomes: Tea Blog is an interactive web-based artwork. It is updated most days with new thoughts. Readers are invited to view entries chronologically or randomly.
