The Waiting Wall: the display board that reveals our darkest thoughts
by Jools Stone from Technology | The Guardian on (#N38A)
This week, a digital art project posts anonymously submitted confessions in Brighton train station. Is it cathartic release or a prime target for pranksters?
The Waiting Wall pitches private thoughts into a public space. For a week from 21 September until 27 September, the main digital advertising display in Brighton train station will accommodate an art piece, broadcasting a stream of existential confessions submitted anonymously by the public alongside the usual adverts.
The Waiting Wall was devised for Brighton digital festival by musician and software developer Alan Donohoe and his creative partner Steven Parker, under the banner of digital storytelling project Free the Trees.
