A STREET WITH A VIEW

I was on the National Geographic site a found an interesting story about Google’s streetview and two artists named Ben Kinsley and Robin Hewlett.

This is a collection of people in Pittsburgh who wanted to show a more interesting glimpse into the lives of some city residents who live, work, and play along one alleyway. It looks as if Ben and Robin were influenced by  Improv Everywhere, the group staged a marathon, a parade, a mad-scientists laboratory, and a sword fight all along the route. The Google Maps crew captured their antics as they drove down the street, and the results can now be found on the actual Street View of Sampsonia Way.

I hope to see more interesting things like this in the future with the use of new technology. Eff the man! have fun.
