Hi James;
People in public "act out."
This acting out reveals a part of themselves, ourselves, not displayed
in the (shrinking) zone of privacy.
For example, the banker is aware that he or she has a role to play, and
thus self-consciously looks and walks like "a banker."
I see some of this self-consciousness role playing in some Michael's
photographs.
Perhaps I wasn't clear on what I meant, so I hope this helps.

Wasn't going to post here but afer I read Joel's comment about
Michael's photographs of street people: "Strange, for example, how
people look being themselves on a public street"
I decided to post a link to mine for contrast...
I'm not quite sure what Joel is suggesting as these people seem to me to
be themselves too, but they're far removed from a London street!?
note: not all photographs have people in.
Cheers,
James.
