365 Day Project (2007)

In 2007, Mekas took his filmmaking online, using his website Jonasmekas.com as the platform for a project called 365 Films, posting a new video each day for the entire year. Intended for "eye-pods" (as his May 31 entry puts it), many of these tidbits are created from now-archival film and video diaries years or decades old, while some employ content shot only days prior to posting. (...) Each daily dose is under 10 minutes (app. 30 hours in total), and their effect is collective; a years' worth of these forms a digital approximation of the monumental quality of his long-form films.
