[body of secrets]

In this project, I will be juxtaposing public and private experience and language, bringing the public realm of mass-produced, sanitized, and desensitized language into dialogue with intimate, private, vulnerable, and forbidden landscapes of language.  

In the first phase of this project, I will be gathering secrets contributed anonymously.  This survey invites you to share  secrets you have had or any private realms of experience.  All your responses are entered anonymously, so please share freely.  By filling this out, you agree to allow the textual material of your language to be incorporated in artistic or literary compositions by Sam Taylor.  It will be used anonymously and most likely only fragments of your language will be used to form a tapestry in which no single narrative is fully disclosed (thus, it will be doubly anonymous).

Please write answers in concrete detail, but respond spontaneously without any effort at composition, editing, censoring, or otherwise striving to be articulate or crafted.  I am interested in the off the cuff, first-thought-best-thought textures of informal, uncomposed, intimate language.  Thank you for participating!

Each question is optional.  Respond only to those questions you wish to.
