The Stoop - January 30


Marlboro Blend No. 27, Peabody Hall, Room 306L
What is the significance of this, you may be wondering? This was the last box of cigarettes that a friend of mine bought before he finally decided to quit. (We'll see how that goes...)

The Stoop - January 23


For my Minutiae project, I am creating a collection of entitled The Stoop. "The stoop" is an area prominently positioned outside of Peabody Hall at Temple University, where many students either spend their time and/or pass on their way home from class and/or J&H Dining Hall. "The Stoop" is constantly covered with trash, cigarette butts, and objects that were at some point left by a passerby. I will scan and blog many of these objects that I found in and around Peabody Hall and "the stoop", some intriguing, that I find throughout the semester.
