12 Photographs (the Centre of the Universe)

An idea Helen and I bounced around whilst we were out for a walk yesterday: from my flat, walk for a set amount of time (10mins, half an hour, 2 hours whatever) in all 12 directions of the compass. Once I reach that point I take a photograph of whatever I see (using a decent dslr this time I think). The images are then displayed, along with notes made along the way, recordings etc. On Kawara springs to mind. I like the idea. The problem I have with it though, is that its, again, about a journey I've made and will the viewer be able to engage with it? I dont know if this matters, I think sometimes you can loose sight of the fact that when you are productive and producing work, viewed as a practice it is interesting.
