Crowdsourcing Art and Sneakers

// August 5th, 2010 // b-street // b-uncut

Sneakers hanging on telephone lines have become an ambiguous urban symbol. They’ve inspired theories both hilarious and sinister from art to drug deals. In an effort to get to the truth once and for all the people of earth were asked to help solve this mystery Crowdsourcing style. Using an on-line call out and a phone message bank, this documentary was made entirely from donated photographs, phoned-in theories, video, vlogs, and animation. How cool is that!

The result of this unique digital collaboration between film makers and the international public is available on DVD now. Visit the Flying Kicks website to buy it. AWESOME! But wait, it doesn’t stop there. Contributions to the mystery are still on demand…SO, if you know anything about the phantom Air Max or ghost of the Reebok Classic get involved!
