Siji’s Perfect Day is a playful and tender exploration of love, generosity, and the inherent unknowability of even our most intimate dear ones. This interactive project asks, “If you could give the perfect day to someone you love, without any restrictions, what would that day look like?” Using a mad-libs inspired template, audience members are invited to choose someone in their life and design a perfect day for that person, imagining how their miraculous day would unfold. A hotline was set up for audience members to call and leave a voice message describing this perfect day. The voice messages were collected and presented as an online audio archive on the project’s webpage. This archive of perfect days offers a chance to peek into intimate details of real relationships, to hear the voices of a creative community, and to experience a collective gesture of generosity. One lucky audience member had their submission transformed into an illustrated zine, delivered to them via snail mail as a gift to pass along to the real recipient of the perfect day.
