10 second visit

On the face of it a 10 second tour of someone's home, portrayed as a series of still images doesn't sound that exciting, but it has surprising impact. Those fleeting glimpses of striking images are somehow compelling and stick in the mind, like being on a train at night and glancing into the rooms of passing houses.

I am a visiting tutor for the research training sessions at Sint Lucas School of Architecture (Brussels) and we ask our students to take a different look at the environment around them by photographing from a fixed point in a street outside the school, looking for artefacts that reveal knowledge about the people around them. I am wondering about incorporating something like this video into the project.
