Searching the web for interesting public/urban interventions I stumbled upon many design interventions or art activisms with a swing. It seems people really like to let go and have a bit of playtime during dull everydaylife in urban city greyness.

Poster .....or not












Yesterday we put up around 50 quiz posters in the city centre of cologen.

The Posters were without a sender, which seems to be of little relevance on the first glace.

In comparison to advertisemnet posters or political posters although they are somewahat special, because advertisement usually has a sender and a message that is been transmitted.

Our posters do not prompt to consumption, neither do they transmit a political opinion. The silently invite to interact by filling in the gaps of the sudoku or finding the hidden words in the letter clouds.

The actual poster develops with the interaction by the people.


Some people used the opportunety to fill in their waiting time at the trainstation by doodeling on the posters. Most of them unfortunately were removed already by today.
