Come Out & Play 2010 in Brooklyn
Demonstrate or counter-demonstrate: the path to victory on the streets is whispered in your ear
Start Time: Saturday June 5 at 2 PM Will you stage a demonstration against the Great Leader or seek to counter this subversion? Go to www.youhavefoundconey.net/counterdemo.html in advance to discover which side you are on, and download an mp3 to make you a player. Both sides mingle in the crowds and press play on the clock. Discreet actions and challenges unfold, guided by the voice whispering in your ear. Who is on your side? Will the demonstration be made or will it be countered? A game of counter-demonstration made by Coney, an agency of adventure and play, in the same vein as last year's Earpiece. Sign-up: You must sign up for the game and download the audio track in advance by following this link: http://youhavefoundconey.net/counterdemo.html
