Tokyo Flashmob

Want to participate in a flashmob? Details below on the one happening in Shinjuku this Sunday (March 22).

With this event we want to criticize the surveillance society which takes away our ability to trust in others.

[Rule number 1] Bring a book of your choice, and read it out lout. It doesn’t matter whether you whisper or shout, whatever way you prefer. The flash mob will dissolve at 12.

[Rule number 2] Help us create Japan’s biggest flashmob ever! Let all your friends know: mail, facebook, blog, phone or smoke signals.

[Venue] Shinjuku Alta Square

[Time] 22/March/2009 11:00-12:00

This event will take place regardless of weather conditions.

A flash mob (or flashmob[1]) is a large group of people who assemble suddenly in a public place, perform an unusual action for a brief time, then quickly disperse.
