Someone Once Told Me


Created in 2006, "Someone Once Told Me" is a collection of ideas, expressions, and memories shared by normal people through photography. People submit their 'SOTM' memories and often include an explanation behind the statement. I definitely have a few in mind for myself, and I think this is quite a cool concept because of all the different people submitting their memories. I'm always very excited to gain insight into the motivations of others.

Here's a quote from the site's creator, Mario Cacciottolo:

"What SOTM actually means is that people are asked, sometimes by appointment and sometimes randomly, to hold up a large piece of paper, upon which they write something that someone once told them. Or emailed. Or texted. Basically something that’s been communicated to them. But told, preferably.
A black and white photograph is then taken of them, and one new picture goes on the site every day, with the previous day’s entering the gallery."
