Hello, Its Morgan Geist. Im curious about your system of categorising the little but acute information that is divulge. Time of installation: 3 hours Damages: none Exhibition time: betwen 2 – 5 hours Reading time: 5 hours Electricity consumption: 0 Not much is expressed by these figures. If we look at the work of Hans Eijkelboom, we can see that the information he gives us with each image ( time, duration and location) expand on the project and create a moment of reflection for the viewer. I find systems of categorising, and meta information give design projects of this nature a new dimension that is always refreshing and insightful. Also, say it lasted 5hrs. Given that such activity is usually taken place say when the streets are empty (midnight lets say) by 5am the project and all its glory is taken away, giving no time for the public (the core of this exercise ) to engage themselves. Finally, the exclamations within the guerrilla "press release" makes me wonder about the intentions of what it actually is that you are engaging in. It smacks of sympathey, and no ting of street cred. Kindest, Morgan G .
