the i-cam

Walking down the street, your gaze flits from object to object - catching the eye of a stranger, reading a sign in the window, following a pigeon as it takes flight from a dustbin, noticing the CCTV cameras everywhere. I've often thought that a film that could capture that random-but-not-quite-random sequence would have a particularly personal, spontaneous and poetic quality.

So the idea is to combine a head-mounted camera with one of those devices that tracks eye movement (either laser-based, or using a second camera). The main camera records what's in your field of vision; the eye-tracker isolates the precise point within each frame that you're actually looking at. A post-process would crop each frame around the attention point to create the final video.
