Subways just feel so alive and dynamic. Every person has a story. Each conversation has character. Each laugh is intended for a particular joke. Individuality is lost, yet there is no collective to speak off - people who ride a subway are no 'more connected' than people who live in different cities. But for the short 10 minute ride, ones eyes are visually assaulted by a rich density of individuals... individual stories, individual characters, individual smiles, individual solitude. And when its right before your eyes, you can't help but feel how much the world doesnt revolve around you and yet feel that the only world that matters, actually does.
The world comes alive in a subway.
