In Keith's world, everything is available for purchase. Its not just the bracelets that the lady is selling, but maybe her sari, or perhaps the shelves on which they lay. Where most of us direct our attention to what is displayed in a store, Keith sees it all. He buys signage used to advertising a sale, lighting fixtures, carts used to haul the merchandise - anything is potentially a new product. It's the ability to see things that one would normally editout - and envision it in a totally different way. Keith thinks of his job as an editor - distilling down a mountain of merchandise to the very best of the best - but really, he is opening up my world. I had been subconsciously editing things so many things out.
It's really whats great about my job. I can go somewhere I've been a dozen times, but doing it with someone new, and seeing it through their lens makes it a whole new place. It's never about where you go, but how...
