Granted, if you live in your childhood<br \/>\nhome, or never left your hometown, chances are you know quite a bit. But if you<br \/>\nmoved away when you were younger, have gone from apartment to apartment a few times,<br \/>\nand wound up wherever you are now, how much do you really know about your<br \/>\nsurroundings? Know any neighbors? This comic is an exploration of Vincent&#8217;s<br \/>\nimmediate surroundings. That much is obvious right away, as his image of the<br \/>\nbuilding he lives in has notations for which neighbors live where and the nature of<br \/>\nthe building itself, including the history of it and the styles of construction in<br \/>\nvarious parts of the building. From there we get to learn a tiny bit about his<br \/>\nneighbor (who killed himself; when his mother came by to clean up she gave Vincent&#8217;s<br \/>\ndaughter the childhood toy from her son, which he was rightly creeped out by), then<br \/>\ninto Vincent&#8217;s apartment. From there he has a close view of his neighbors across the<br \/>\nstreet, and each of them has their own story (or story that he made up after<br \/>\nobserving them for a time). It never gets too voyeuristic and we learn precious<br \/>\nlittle about Vincent&#8217;s life, but it serves as a fantastic portrait of a place and of<br \/>\nthe time in which it&#8217;s being observed. Check it out, then just try not to look<br \/>\naround at your own place and wonder what else is going on around you that you&#8217;ve<br \/>\nnever seen. $2<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-23498\" src=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2-213x300.jpg\" alt=\"insidesalmeck2\" width=\"213\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2-213x300.jpg 213w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2-726x1024.jpg 726w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2-177x250.jpg 177w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2-124x175.jpg 124w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2-27x38.jpg 27w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2-152x215.jpg 152w, https:\/\/opticalsloth.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2015\/05\/insidesalmeck2.jpg 796w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 213px) 100vw, 213px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Website Inside Salmeck How much do you know about where you live?
