TIME IS LIKE A CLOCK IN MY HEART

Time is the fourth dimensio

n and a measure in which e

vents can be ordered from th

e past through

the present into the future, a

nd also the measure of dura

tions of events and the inte

rvals between

them. Time has long been a

major subject of study in re

ligion, philosophy, and scien

ce, but

defining it in a manner appli

cable to all fields without cir

cularity has consistently elud

ed scholars.

Nevertheless, diverse fields

such as business, industry,

sports, the sciences, and th

e performing

arts all incorporate some no

tion of time into their respec

tive measuring systems.

Some simple, relatively unc

ontroversial definitions of tim

e include »time is what cloc

ks measure«

and »time is what keeps eve

rything from happening at o

nce«

Two contrasting viewpoints on time divide many prominent philosophers. One view is that time is part of the fundamental structure of the universe – a dimension independent of events,

in which events occur in sequence. Sir Isaac Newton subscribed to this realist view, and hence it is sometimes referred to as Newtonian time. The opposing view is that time

does not refer to any kind of »container« that events and objects »move through«, nor to any entity that »flows«, but that it is instead part of a fundamental intellectual structure (together

with space and number) within which humans sequence and compare events. This second view, in the tradition of Gottfried Leibniz and Immanuel Kant, holds that time is neither an event nor a thing, and thus is not itself measurable nor can it be travelled.

FEATURE: Sam Herron

“Today everything exists to end in a photograph.”

My name is Sam Herron and I’m a photojournalist/photographer influenced by talented shooters like Lance Mercer and Daido Moriyama, along with design pioneers like Reid Miles. Experience as a documentary photographer has instilled in me the belief that, to successfully chronicle a world, one needs a feel for location, empathy, and an understanding of the human condition. Susan Sontag sums it up perfectly when she states, “All photographs are memento mori. To take a photograph is to participate in another person’s (or thing’s) mortality, vulnerability, mutability.Precisely by slicing out this moment and freezing it, all photographs testify to time’s relentless melt.”

How exactly a photographer accomplishes this depends on both the documentarian's process and his or her Self. Some photojournalists talk about being a fly on the wall when shooting. I really don't accept that. You have to give yourself to your subjects to get something back. This requires a deep understanding of the geography and social environment your subjects experience every day. In my case, a protracted descent into poverty gave me authentic insight into a reality others just pass by.

Living in my car for several months on the streets of Omaha, Nebraska has helped me, as Sontag puts it, “participate in another person's...mortality” and “testify to time's relentless melt.” I now find myself driven to bring a unique window into the world of those who have been cast off by society.

SAM© “No Statue of Liberty ever greeted our arrival in this country”

I ran into him down at the homeless shelter. I pulled out a cigarette and he immediately opened up.

His name is Kevin Running Bear. Spent ten years in the joint and had just gotten out. He's proud of his heritage,

his status as an outsider. I enjoyed talking to him. “I'm so used to being where I'm at,” he told me,

“that I just don't care. I'm such a survivor. I'll never leave.

SAM© “Have your adventures, make your mistakes, and choose

your friends poorly – all these make for great stories.”

SAM© “Peace begins with a smile...”

SAM© “I put a dollar in a

change machine. Nothing changed.”8/9

SAM© “How we need another soul to cling to.”

SAM© “All great and precious things are lonely.”

SAM© “I don't know, I don't care, and it doesn't make any difference.”

SAM© “Find good in what the world says is evil.”

SAM© “If you're happy in adream, does that count?”

SAM© “Nothing is true,

SAM© “Words of the hero – I am my fate.”

SAM© “Never miss a party...good for the nerves–like celery.”14/15

SAM© “No one is free. Even the birds are chained to the sky”

SAM© “We had longer ways to go. But no matter, the road is life.”

I’ve seen this kid stumbling around North Omaha before, in

various states of beaten-the-fuck-out-of. He clearly gets

worked over by the jackals of the street. He escaped a war

zone in Africa somewhere, and his name is Panong.

SAM© “A piece of advice: if you want to remainin control of a doomsday cult, don't give a date for

the end of the world unless you're really, really

sure it's going to happen. Being wrong tends

to undermine your authority”
