minutiae: Uncurated, unfollowed, unfiltered. An art project created by Martin Adolfsson & Daniel J Wilson Description minutiae is an anti-social media app that helps participants capture ordinary moments of life -- moments we don’t fully value until they’re gone. //////////////////////////// HOW IT WORKS //////////////////////////// 1. Once each day, at a random minute, all minutiae participants around the globe receive an alert simultaneously. 2. You have exactly one minute to respond to the alert and open the minutiae app. 3. Capture whatever is in front of you, there and then. 4. Once you’ve documented your moment, you have 60 seconds to explore previous moments. Both your own, and those of one random stranger you are matched with each day. 4. Repeat for 1440 days (once for every minute in 24 hours). 5. The final outcome of this long term collaboration between artist and participant is a digital archive of all of your captured moments, with the option to turn this archive into a physical book. *NOTE* Notifications happen at the same time for all participants around the globe. This means that there will inevitably be notifications that happen while you are sleeping. To avoid receiving a notification at night you can put your phone on ‘do not disturb’ mode. //////////////////////////////////////////// THE minutiae MANIFESTO //////////////////////////////////////////// YOU ARE NOT YOUR TIMELINE Social media was supposed to keep us in touch with our friends but has instead turned us all into unwitting monkeys filling out the world’s longest consumer survey. Facebook doesn’t want your money. It wants your time. minutiae is a response to our current moment: an anonymous anti-social media app that forces its users to document the in-between moments of life. A collaboration between artist and participant that retrieves forgotten moments and celebrates the ordinary. minutiae IS NOT A NORMAL APP minutiae does not provide instant gratification minutiae is not interested in your data minutiae will not increase your efficiency minutiae is not a popularity contest minutiae is (let’s be honest) not for everyone minutiae IS YOUR AUTOMATED SELF-PORTRAIT minutiae is random moments. minutiae is forgotten memories. minutiae is life. Real life. Uncurated. Unfiltered. Unfollowed. minutiae is a marathon, not a sprint. //////////////////////////// SUBSCRIPTION INFO //////////////////////////// Your payment will be charged to your iTunes account at the confirmation of purchase. Your subscription will automatically renew 24-hours before the end of the current period, and your credit card will be charged through your iTunes account unless auto-renew is turned off at least 24-hours before the end of the current period. Automatic renewals will cost the same price you were originally charged for the subscription. You can turn off auto-renew at any time from your iTunes account settings. //////////////// By using this app, you are agreeing to the minutiae Terms of Service (http://www.minutiae-app.org/tos/). //////////////// For more information please visit the minutiae webpage at www.minutiae-app.org where you can find an FAQ. //////////////// We encourage feedback and appreciate your reviews.

Although I have missed more than a few opportunities to take the picture that I need to take every day, I am still loving this app. When you join, be sure all of your notifications for this app are turned on so that you don't miss an opportunity to take a picture of your day. I can't wait for the look back to see exactly what my days have been like. I'm old, and my short-term memory is not as good as it once was. I'm hoping to remember each little moment. I can't tell you how much I love this project.

I am went to art school and did a lot of time-based media, love ephemerality and small moments, and serendipitous sharing with strangers. I wanted to love this app, but the user experience was more of a frustration than a pleasure for the following reasons: 1. VERY easy to miss your moment when you are at work or even just left the phone unattended for five minutes. 2. I don’t want to be tied to my phone due to FOMO, and because of 1., the app was not fun. Had more misses than photos, and it just felt rushed and stressful. So, sadly, I deleted it after less than a month.

Its great. I love the app; the idea behind it, how smoothly it works. Had zero glitches etc. Works perfectly and lots of fun. My only issue is the volume of the alarm. The alarm sound itself is fantastic-I know exactly what it is when it goes off-if I hear it. I have it thrned up as much as possible in my settings; arent you able to make it louder from your end? I miss so many opportunities, only mainly catching it if Im home. My pictures arent really reflecting real life anymore.

I have loved this from the very first day (1460 minutiae minutes ago). I love capturing a moment that feels ho- hum and realizing its uniqueness the second I focus my attention on it. I love that I got paired in photos with an important person in my life at an important moment in their life - felt like such a crazy gift from the universe.

I travel a lot and would have had an amazing set of photos to look back on. Unfortunately, the app takes forever to load whenever my cell signal isn’t 100% optimal and I end up missing 90% of those photos. There should be a way to quickly load the app, locally store the photo, and sync later.

Not only a waste of money but once I started using it has become a waste of time and an annoying inconvenience or interruption to my day!

I’m from South Africa. So I often find that my minutiae comes in during my evening when I have my DND on, therefore I miss out on quite a bit. Otherwise, I really love the app.

I love the idea but it’s not compatible with trying to lead a life that is less centred on my phone.

Our first redesign in nine years. Don’t worry. minutiae still works exactly the same. The idea, timing, and rules of the project have not changed. The design has been refined to make the app clearer and easier to navigate. What’s new: Matches are faster and more diverse. A menu you can actually find View your journey year by year, as well as across the full 1440-minute cycle An easier way to order books and posters, still completely optional A refreshed membership area A demo explaining how the Grid works A more detailed Artists & Credits section Small refinements throughout the app Nothing essential has changed. It is the same project, seen more clearly nine years in. Thanks for being part of it.
