spitography

1) search public areas for human spit

2) put on rubber gloves

3) dribble black ink on spit spot

4) gently press paper for 3 seconds on inked spot

5) take geographic coordinates, date and time

6) clear print from mucus with paper towel

7) let print dry

By repetitively following these instructions I have collected 42 prints of spit.
