The Thousands

Like any good secret, Arts Mobile Sydney is enigmatic to the point of frustration, or it was until yesterday. Like any good journalist, I retrieved you the guts of this secret militantly. If only I’d waited until today, when the heads spilled the juice themselves. So, what we know is this.

This is a civic tickling of interactive entertainment requiring your intervention. Ten artists will deliver executions into the public domain. You will encounter them on your daily routine. Hoping to impress upon and engage citizens outside of the art system and the gallery, they will involve you to varied capacities. You will be able to help build the artworks and take some home for free.**Wrap your nog around the reality that you may or may not be slipped a love note, an eyeball or a one-minute portrait of your face. Dance with motion graphics or leave a filmed message for a person waiting in the bus queue behind you, all before you reach your doormat tonight.

Tread lightly.
