Life as a living archive
LifeLoggerz
A multi-year public experiment in turning ordinary days into searchable, visual, useful data.
I track the raw details of daily life, process them through Google Sheets and automation, then publish the systems, templates, graphs, and lessons so others can build higher.
I share the system, not private raw personal logs.
Start here
Four doors into the project
One section, no redundancy: the foundation, the output, the graphs, and the tools.
Foundation
Raw Data Sheets
The Google Sheets backbone where daily life becomes structured, searchable data.
Open → OutputDaily Snapshot
One ordinary day transformed into a readable summary with numbers, notes, images, quotes, blunders, and context.
Open → StatsStats Dashboard
Graphs from the archive: guitar, audiobooks, running, diary word counts, and more as the system grows.
Open → Try itTemplates
Copy the sheets and workflows instead of starting from zero.

Explore the archive
LifeLoggerz is bigger than the tracking system. The archive also preserves the books, albums, art, and stats that shape the years being tracked.
Go to the stats dashboard → Books Audiobooks logged with dates, genres, notes, and listening context. Albums Full albums preserved as part of the archive instead of disappearing into shuffled playlists. Art Daily artworks collected into a visual diary of what shaped the years. Stats Dashboard The quantitative side of LifeLoggerz: graphs built from the long-running archive.

Why this exists
The point is not to optimize every minute.
The point is to remember life clearly, study habits honestly, and leave a trail that another curious person can build from. Even if one person creates a better system after seeing this, LifeLoggerz has done its job.
