With your consent, a camera crew films your waking hours* for 60 days, how many days into it before you might be able to fully ignore them?

*With the exception of utterly personal and obviously private moments.


The idea of ignoring them is that there is not supposed to be any interaction between you and them, you’re expected to carry on your normal routine as if they are not even there.

    None.  I'm too accustomed to being the only person in the apartment.

    I wouldn't be able to ignore them at all.

    Nowadays a "crew" would consist of 1 person.  If it were a male "crew" I'd say about 5 days.  But if the "crew" were female, then never (that would be impolite).

    It probably wouldn't take long. Privacy is an illusion anyway.  We're on camera more than we realize.

      To my mind, that sounds like an invitation. I can be there in no time, you know I can. Wait until you see my equipment.

    I'm sure one of your harem is more photogenic than I am.  I don't like cameras.

    There are cameras that will detect your approach so I have time to prevent your arrival. And furthermore, to your mind everything sounds like an invitation.  I have no interest in your equipment which as I have heard from multiple sources, is nothing special.

      Hey, wait a second, you were thinking about my . . .




    . . . well, at least it’s good for me to know that you had me on your mind in that way. (Albeit negatively. Grrrrrrr.)

    You should ask the people in prison, they all have experience.

    What makes you think prisoners are not logged onto here right now? Dungeons all over the place probably have many members in here.

    I can find better use of my time than count the days behind bars. Of course if that's your thing, I'll gladly lock you up and then go to an art gallery or something. Not to worry, I'll bring you cigarettes and coffee.

    I thought my stint in Shawshank was over but now I'm back. ( Shhh -- I repeated your question back to you loudly so they would hear. But I know how Andy got out. Lean closer . . . )

    The more interesting aspect, to me, of your interesting question is how they got my consent in the first place.

    I already ignore all reality shows.

    But to answer your question: I have no idea.

      They wouldn’t proceed without you first having signed a release form, that’s how.

    I  truly know I wouldn't do it for money.
    But maybe meeting Guy Pearce? Meeting again Ruth Pointer? Meeting Laurie Anderson? Meeting again Howard Jones?

    Okay, "you asked for it."  :)  :)

    Guy Pearce is my favorite living actor. (You had also answered one of my questions inspired by Pearce -- I had watched an entire movie and did not know he was in it; I didn't recognize him.)



    Ruth Pointer    the surviving member of The Pointer Sisters . I met them all once after one of their concerts. They were SO nice to me and SO funny.  I wouldn't mind seeing Ruth again. Their music helped me through really rough times as a youngster. Their music continues to better my life. Ruth is on the left, then Anita, Bonnie and June.




    Laurie Anderson is hard for me to describe - - incredibly innovative and original to me; singer, musician, artist. Here's the first song I heard from her : "O Superman." In fact, I heard this song first at a big Music Video Concert , people wandered all around a big room with a big screen showing music videos. My friend and I stopped in our tracks and were mesmerized for the entire eight-and-a-half minutes with Anderson's song. She's not for everyone, but she's for me. :)  I've seen her "live," in concert, three times.



    Howard Jones -- another singer/composer/musician who has immensely bettered my life. I've seen him in concert four times.
    This is his "New Song."  I love this song and music video - - if watched and listened to from start to finish, I especially love the concluding moments of the video.   :)
