Wasted Spaces x Hellicar & Lewis
Wasted Spaces has commissioned Hellicar & Lewis to develop The Hello Wall. This installation uses Twitter to let the public interact with the huge wall projection on Wembley High Road.
Starting Monday 8th March, you can get involved by Tweeting commands to @thehellowall, or shapes (triangles, squares, circles), commands (more, less, shake) or just hello.
Hellicar & Lewis are a London-based duo – Pete Hellicar and Joel Gethin Lewis. They have embraced the open source revolution which creates art that is accessible and interactive.
The artists explain the artwork in more detail as follows:
“In visual terms, The Hello Wall will be a simple single colour background, with a foreground of simple shapes, in a physically realistic two dimensional simulation. Imagine a series of red circles on an orange background, bouncing off each other in zero gravity.
The installation is designed to empower people, to allow them to have a creative input into the architectural space that they find themselves in – often without any sense of control or ownership.”

Hide & Seek Festival
Alex from Hide and Seek would like me to tell you about his festival for "social games and playful experiences" which opens tomorrow. It's not your average festival, but then Alex isn't your average man. A bunch of us are hitting the "This is it ..." event and party tomorrow night, so if your lucky enough to have a ticket, see you there.

Very very very wrong indeed

I missed Tim Sheridan's recent Irish visit, unfortunately. And I'm not going to make this little bash he's involved in either. In fact I've never heard him DJ. So won't someone please tip along tomorrow night and have a beer for me? Cheers...
Unit 7 Website up and running

Radiohead vs EMI
So the past few weeks have been all about Radiohead - whether its their its their decision to go it alone and leave EMI behind or EMI's one-two punch back at them with the awesomely desireable but maybe not so useful back catalogue to be released on USB drives - Radiohead are everywhere and the label is pissed (except for XL that is).
