The King Has…
The King Has… by Krister Olsson & Takashi Kawashima…”Over the course of one week individuals were encouraged to SMS repressed secrets to a computer-controlled Bluetooth cell phone. Each message sent to the phone was formatted by the computer, saved to PDF, and added to a print queue. A fabricated slab printer was used to print each message on a panel of oiled plywood. Once a day the output of the printer was shellacked and mounted at construction sites in Downtown Los Angeles. Over the life of the installation a forest of text appeared in areas of very high foot traffic.” [via]
