Ever fancy yourself a life coach? Well this month, you can be just that: life coach to artist Marc Horowitz, thanks to Creative Time. For the month of November, Horowitz will not only be listening to the advice of strangers, but applying that solicited advice to his daily life in a performance/social experiment. The artist will “live by popular vote” through theadviceofstrangers.com. Says the artist, “As people get to know me over the month, I suspect some will become more nurturing, and some might become more sadistic. Whatever the case, I will stay the course decided by this online community. I'm sure there will be plenty of surprises along the way.”
So far, his online audience has helped him shave his facial hair, decide what to discuss with his therapist, where to eat an egg role, what to present at his USC MFA crit class, and vote in yesterday's mid-term elections.
