Ask HN: Do you know of any project with the goal to log and map a human life?

#1
I'm looking for some kind of undergoing study that follows an individual with the goal to completely map that individual's life.

Measured data could include: - Exact daily diet proportions - Daily air quality - Steps per day - Minutes of physical exercise per week - Monthly vitamin readings - Weekly blood pressure - Hourly/Daily blood sugar - Minutes of social interaction per day - Monthly wage - Daily self-estimated happiness - Daily self-estimated worth etc.

What I'm looking for should be trying to map all possible long term health contributing factors in an individual's life.

Do you know of anything like this? Mayhap not even a study, but someone's personal project that they publicize on the web?

This sound like Buckminster Fuller's Dymaxion Chronofile.

The Dymaxion Chronofile is Buckminster Fuller's attempt to document his life as completely as possible. He created a very large scrapbook in which he documented his life every 15 minutes from 1920 to 1983

Wonder if you could grab a hand on it through it's foundation archive.
