The O2 memory project
April 20, 2008 | 2 Comments

So Saturday I hoped down to the Southbank for an afternoon of awesomeness with Charlie, Priyanka, Sam and Charles to see the O2 Memory Project. The instillation created by Jason Bruges, camera-captures panoramic movements and stores them within it’s digital memory bank inside. You can then go inside the instillation and see images that it has taken and here’s some for the photo album from Team Awesome

Although the project is a great idea, it wasn’t executed as well as I would have hoped however, we managed to add an additional BOOM (as Sam would say) to the project. After leaving the instillation, we went to the Hayward Gallery to see what other toys we could play with and stumbled upon these little cardboard camera’s that you put over the lens of your camera to make your photo’s a little more interesting.

Now OK these images didn’t come out as well as we had hoped when we put them over the memory project, but below you can see the effect it’s supposed to create below.

Rickroll flash mob

So I am a little late writing this post but on Friday evening I headed over to Liverpool Street Station to take part in the Rick Astely flashmob. If you don’t know what a flashmob is then you can look here. If you don’t know what all the fuss is about with Rick Astley then you can find out here.
As flashmobs go, it wasn’t one of the greatest but it was still really fun nevertheless. 5:59pm people were loitering around the departure boards and as the final ten seconds took us to 6pm the excitement began. It is unfortunate that more people watched rather than participate as it’s not really in the spirit of flashmobs however, you can see what you think courtesy of my Qik video
