OBSESSED ABOUT TIME PASSING BY...

ALBANY — If you ever stopped by Andy Warhol’s Factory, you could be pretty sure he would want you to pose for his camera.
“I can hear him say something like ‘make a face’ or ‘move around’ or ‘take off your shirt,’ ” said Roberta Bernstein, the pop icon’s former assistant and an art historian.Or, he might ask someone to drop their drawers.“That was typical of Andy. He had a naughty side to his personality. He would never force anyone to do anything, but he could sense what he could get someone to do,” said Bernstein.Yet it wasn’t the naughty side that his camera was nourishing. His camera fed his obsessive need to track every moment of his life. In 1966, Bernstein worked with Warhol at his East 47th Street Factory. At that point, he used a tape recorder to document his life.
