Damn good concept

Guest's picture

I like this, but question if it's actually real. I thought all those lines couldn't touch for safety reasons. Plus, how do you get all off those lines through the nose hole without detaching the wires and restringing them? I don't imagine the many companies that use these lines for their services would be willing to take such a risk for some advertisement.

They really went this far to make it look real? The the total width of the cables WOULDNT fit on those small holes. PLUS cables are stretched ON THE INSTALATION then hanging and loose when they where DONE?. DID they REWIRE? The installation proposed with a split image to allow running the cables, WOULDNT require that. Unless those workers where actually STEALING COPPER cabling I still dont believe any of it. I apluad the artists ingenuity though.

Just my humble opinion

Rewire? What about gluing the poster around the cables. You make up a too difficult solution here.

whatsamatta's picture 18 pencils

I agree, idea is good BUT, this is a fake. Notice they propose using the actual electric post to affix the AD and the cable DONT converge where they would on a real application. Seriously GUYS, HOW CAN EVERYBODY MISS THIS, praise the IDEA but dont defend it as REAL.

Just my humble opinion

Stop Mediocrity. Start Creativity.
There are two kinds of people in the world; people who like mustangs (cool people) and people who like camaros (idiots).

Why are you making pictures of yourself looking at your own work?
